Paint the calipers RED,its called an 'accent'.
BTW: do you dress in all black grab now, including undies for the 'Complete Bad Boy' look? That's a joke son!

Same ideas I was going back and forth with, the 5 spokes have a classic simple design and very easy to clean but I'm putting on new rotors with ceramic pads(less to no dust) , they are 20x8.5" with about a +20 offset and a 255/50/20" tire.
The mesh set have a deep concave look which is a little more fresh but does look a little busy especially with that step before the lip . They are 20X10 with a +40 offset with a 295/40/20" tire (1/2" clearance from struts on front is the closest object to rub, which is still pretty far) , the truck is lowered, if you tried either set of rims on a stock height (non Sport model)vehicle they would poke out almost an inch, a little less on a Sport.
I have another set of calipers I was putting on, I was deciding if I should paint or powder coat silver, black or red. Black is too plain and I thought red would draw too much attention, so I ended up painting them silver for now, I think I will keep an eye out for caliper covers in red and put up new pics lol .
I also had a set of deep dish mesh rims and a set of chrome rims but I didn't like the look, if your curiosity wants to see those pictures I can find them.
I know right
