    Ive had flat black Methods for a while now and getting ready for new tires. Im thinking about having wheels powder coated vs purchasing new wheels- really liking the machined look now. Any thoughts on wheel color? Black (they have a few chips), super dark bronze, MGM to match truck?

    Lots of pics of different wheels on MGM in the 2.5 gen MGM thread. Check that out for pics.

    With MGM color, machined, bronze, gunmetal/anthracite can look nice. Agree about something other than flat black. Even gloss black would be an improvement.

    Gunmetal, a machined type of color, or something like what this one has in the MGM thread.

    MGM, i say bronze or black. Just don't colour match (I'm not into the matchy matchy look).

    If you want to match MGM, this is the color. I did my TSS wheels.

    Thanks for all the info. I got an estimate back from a recommended shop - min $150/ wheel with a 10 day service. Im putting this on hold for a bit. Looking at getting s suspension upgrade and tires. Ant thoughts on the Dirt King 2.5s? Going with KO3s for tires (285/75/17). Take care.

    If I do go with a new set of wheels... Any thoughts on a machined wheel make/model? 17 x 5 x 150

    It really depends what you are wanting to do with your suspension. @memario1214 would be a great person to start a PM with to talk budget and intended uses. The DK suspension seems nice but also "new" and for the price I'd personally go with a more known product. But if you like it, there is nothing saying to "run away"
