Not Happy

I recently put some new wheels and tires on my new truck and not sure if I like them. I feel like they look way too small. I have the same size on my 05 f350 and love them. I don't know if the black is making them look small or what. I bought some bushwacker fender flares and they make the wheels look even smaller. What are your thoughts guys?

Probably right about the black rims , they make them look smaller. Don't think they look too small though.

I think the look good. They are a more low profile tire correct?

I think they look good, not too small at all. The flares should not make them look smaller, at least from the side, since the wheel well will have some space consumed by the flare and so the wheel will look like its filling the space more.

I'm not a huge fan of black wheels on a truck like that, but I don't think they look small. What size wheels are they, and what size tires?

PS Then again I'm not a big fan of Bushcrackers either, so I guess my ideas wouldn't jive regardless

I think the truck looks great! Rims look huge, but I still think my 17s are huge too

The size looks just fine to me. I don't think they look good, but the size has nothing to do with it.

Looks good, but the rims lose themselves in the tires... no break between black truck/black wheel wells/black tires and black rims, IMO.

I like the black but is sort of disappears do to the truck color.
With the black truck a little bit of shinny would make then stand out a bit more.
But I really do like then and they would look good on my truck.
Want to trade ?
