whats up all,
i got a 94 cherokee 4 door. Im buying some wider rims with offest to fit the 31's, that i have yet to put on... i dont have a pic of them but they look like old amerian racing swirley/ blade rims... either way, they are chrome.... not a big fan of chrome. My jeep is dark green. Any suggestions of colors that look good on it? maybe even pics if ya got a green jeep with diff. color rims. Thanks

Might sound crazy, but what about white? It will offset with the green. There are too many black rims in my opinion.

white crossed my mind. plus since the rims are kinda classic,it might look good.

Rustoleum makes a really nice Hammered paint that I use on my bumpers, wheels, rockers etc. The color on the can says black but once you paint the surface it almost gives it a nice almost dark smokey grey look. We did the OE rims on a friends XJ that is also a dark forest green and the combo looked really good.

Thats what I have one mine, and my dads F250, both look real good in my opinion.
