Yeah, I think it definitely looks better!! When I had my stock wheel, I only noticed the difference when I stomped on it. The whistle seemed about the same otherwise. Try sticking your foot into it and see if you can tell. Of course, you would have to know what it sounded like before when you stuck your foot in it...

A MOPAR color fan? I remember seeing some great colors come out of them.

I notice it under load, pulling a trailer ect. I hear it at 70, but it isnt bad at all, i like it..

But I also havent been mushing the peddal lately, below 2000 rpm is my goal right now. people behind me arent so happy..I know, I will put a can on the back of my truck, it will say, " you donate, I will accellerate"

I just got done removing the foil from mine about an hour ago. Took about 10 minutes to remove and reinstall, but about an hour to get the foil and glue off. That stuff sucks.
