This wheels for The Mule?

Ive had this wheels for a while, my uncle gave them to me after he traded in his Ram CTD. I had them on before but I didn't like the look of them but many people including my wife liked how they looked, so im here trying to give them another shot.
Post your yes or no's depending if you my FTE brothers like them ill go ahead and leave them on

Heres a poc of the wheels and what they look like on my truck.

I don't really care for them, but it's your truck, you have to like them.

"Crackstars", heh.

I'll add my voice to everyone else's here: pass, and pass quickly. I don't care for those style of wheels on anything, let alone the OBS. I think Ford did well with the Alcoa style aluminum, I wish there was a similar style available for the F47. Oh, well.

It doesn't matter what we, your friends, or your family think really. Its your truck. It sounds to me like you aren't happy with them.
