I really like the MB Motoring Gunner 6 wheels in the machined finish. I have them on my truck and really like them.

I just can't get into any wheel with black on the lip, personally. I like a clear delineation between wheel and tire.
I tend to agree. There are a few silver/black wheels out there I like but I much prefer silver painted or machined finishes.

I keep going back to these two but neither is a home run. They are a compromise betwen the finish and design. I'd love to find Weld Cheyennes or Dunes but they are all but non-existent in the size I want. The only Welds I see for sale are about 3 feet wide with a 2 foot lip specially made for the boys at GMFS.

I'm going to have a co-worker do a quick PS with this one. My only reservation is how it will look with a more off road look (for me anyway). I like that it does't have a centercap.

If I can get this one polished or machined, this might be it. The chrome plastic center cap drives me nuts with the silver finish and the 37lb weight is more than I wanted. :fume:

Daddy - any others that you've run across that you think would fit the bill?

Those are what I ran on my Sierra. Looking back at the pictures, I liked those better than the Novakanes I put on

I remember them on your Sierra and I did like them. A guy in town has them on his truck and something about it doesn't look right. Maybe it's because your truck had a body lift and the guy here only has a level and crappy tires.

FWIW, I liked the Nokanes on your truck better. :D

I found out Centerline makes this in a 6 lug (can't find a pic) but this is another top contender. If I have time tomorrow, I'm going to talk to them about options for this wheel and see if they can send a pic of a 6 lug.

I hope one of the options is to get them with a smooth edge on that lip.





What about these with a little more lip?

I found out about the wheel on a HD forum and one poster claimed they could be had with a smooth lip. They are very similar to Weld Dunes which I like. Plus they can come in polished and are light.

Yeah I do like that Orion wheel also. To me, it feels like it would go better with the street look vs the mild off road look I'm going for. Do you think it would look tough with some beefy AT tires on a leveled truck?
