Does anyone know what the original rim color is? These are not the 2 piece rims. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 6,100 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2005 Posts: 6,100 | Hy 59apache36, welcome, if the truck was a single solid colour, then the wheels would have been black. If the truck was a two tone, I would have to know the colours to tell you what the wheel colour would have been, hope that helps. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2009 Posts: 7 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Oct 2009 Posts: 7 | Thank you for responding. The original colors are dawn blue and bombay ivory. The rims measure 19.5 x 6 and have 8 lugs with 3 oval slots. Couple other questions if you know: Was there any pin striping on these rims? Is the finish glossy or flat?
