I am taking the set of seven 22.5" wheels for my truck to be shot peened and powdercoated on Friday.
But don't know what color to have them coated?

My truck is a 48 6400, the frame is flat black, cab will be a dark red.

This is the truck before I started on it:

Here are the wheels, the silver part at the rim is only paint, they are one piece wheels:

This is the red color that the cab fenders and hood will be painted, I also like the green, but don't think it will be used on this truck?:

I had thought the wheels would be a gloss black, now I can'd decide what to do.
I want the truck to pass as original appering to the average persion, and want it to look nice.

Any ideas or thoughts?
thanks,
Grigg
