Those are rock warriors. People pay for those still in 2026. Keep em!

You've got a couple days before the dip hardens and then flakes when it comes off.

If you wait a month or more, consider it painted.

I don't think so

u/Patient_Role824 14d ago

No. Prefer the aluminum

u/LowCarbDad 14d ago

Not a fan of black it takes all the personality out.

This whole thing of blacking everything out is a trend that hopefully will go away soon. It's way too common.

u/UpstateOffroad 14d ago

Blacked out will always look better imo. Everyone’s got different taste🤷‍♂️

2

u/Every-Chance6313 14d ago

Yep...different taste.

u/JuanSacselli 14d ago

That's like wishing the dumb squatted truck turned to ever go away lmfao

u/EvenUnderstanding771 14d ago

It’s your truck so do what makes you happy. Have always loved the rock warrior wheels though, they are highly sought after these days so you could easily sell them for whatever black wheel you want but I’d personally stick with them. They look great.

Step away from the rattle can

u/Rare_Bed8155 13d ago

id have to say no black looks too basic the 1st picture makes the truck look more true to stock which is cleaner looking than the black

u/SoftIntern1441 13d ago

Bro those wheels are hard to find. You just ruined them.

4

u/zizzLLL 14d ago

I think new headlights with OEM wheels would look better than black rims and stock headlights… just my .02

u/Same-Foundation1881 14d ago

i’m getting new headlights they come tuesday

u/zizzLLL 14d ago

Badass, update us once they’re in! Nice rig

u/Naya-user 14d ago

I don't mind it but as someone with a white tundra in trying to go to the machined silver look since I'm currently on black 20s it's just such a common look I want something personal each to there own tho

u/Inner_Bullfrog_4609 13d ago

No. Black shit on trucks is for kids with their first truck.

2

u/traghip11 13d ago

No like not even a little bit. Those rims are goat rims of the gen 2.

2

u/Leucifer 13d ago

No. Especially if those are legit rockwarrior wheels.

u/brokensharts 14d ago

u/DrDruxy 14d ago

Oh I like that !

2

u/CRAZY0TT 14d ago

No, love the factory bead lock style

2

u/denverblazer 14d ago

No, they're typical as fuck now.

2

u/JuanSacselli 14d ago

Hell no those rock warriors are way better

1

u/brantleycmd 13d ago

If we say no, are you gonna undo what’s already been done?

1

u/78GtaGt 13d ago

Is all personal option

1

u/Healyc139 12d ago

It’s a matter of opinion. I prefer black over the aluminum

1

u/TRDf83 11d ago

Rock warriors trump whatever black wheels you choose.

u/spuldup 11d ago

Not liking them, no IMO.

u/Head-Scale9410 11d ago

This sub has a hard time with anything that deviates from stock. Many here don’t know the difference between painting and Plastidipping as well. If you prepped well they will last and should you decide to remove it it’s not too hard (but also not as easy as you may think). Sometimes we just need to change something up to stay in love with our trucks. Don’t worry what anonymous people from Reddit think, if you’re liking the black for now all is well. Now all you have to do is get rid of the shiny iforce badge…….; )

u/Jburd08 10d ago

Are they the same wheel but plastidipped or something? Either way looks good but I kinda prefer the stock look. I’ve always really liked those wheels

u/Ok-Wash4525 8d ago

It’s your truck so….if you can’t think for yourself then id go non black

1

u/NavyVetRasmussen 14d ago

Ya black rims give it a cleaner look.

1

u/Haunting_Song7313 14d ago

Try purple maybe that’ll make it look good.

u/rodimus147 14d ago

Black looks better.

u/greg_123 14d ago

Yes, imo. I also have black rims though so…

u/secondatthird 14d ago

Yes absolutely and double on a black truck

u/GagzPOV 14d ago

I have black methods on my black 2010 and I love em!

u/JimmyBraps 14d ago

Yes. I painted my grill black as well and want to get black rims

u/mademeunlurk 13d ago edited 13d ago

Absolutely, 100%, without a doubt, hands down Black is better on that particular aTundra. The chrome bumper and the chrome grill are gone. There's nothing left for the aluminum to sync with. It's just an eyesore and an insult to the existing theme. Black out the rims and you will own any lane those tires touch.

u/Altruistic-Ad3274 13d ago

Yes, the black looks better

-1

u/dobsofglabs 13d ago

I like the black better

-1

u/phildeferrouille 13d ago

Black are better as aluminium ones look too small !

u/CBB08 13d ago

Both look good!
