Black wheels or not?
I have been thinking about bigger STT's and black wheels? Do you think it will look good on a tan 1995 with a arb bumper and winch? (the winch isnt pictured)

Black wheels look good on anything with 4wd, IMHO. But then again, I'm not much into bling.

Do it! I put a set of black wheels on for a winter like 3 years ago and I liked it so much I never did put my chromies back on. I have the Cragen Soft 8's and really like them.

Once you go black then you'll look like every freakin' older Cherokee Sport I see around here. At least maybe give gunmetal a shot since black is so cliche on a 4wd.

I went black on my grey 1st gen looks awsome, wifes 3rd gen white with grey bottom 1/4 looks better with the stock alloy wheel look.

it's hard to say with chrome mirrors.... Is the rear bumper chrome?

If they were both black i would say yes.

Everyone runs black.
Black goes with any color though.

So true...

a classic, yet tastefully overdone at the same time.

Its just my opinion mind you but, I like my rims the same color as my cab with chrome baby moon hubcaps. Just old fashion I reckon.

My co-worker mentioned a color scheme like that to me on his old Duster. Sounds really cool.
