I'm thinking if I go Carb Gray,: Velocity Blue BRONCO letters, beadlock rings, grab handles and exposed door insert color would work. If I go Velocity Blue only Race Red BRONCO letters

Looks nice. Did you paint them yourself? If they are painted, how are they holding up?Although its not practical I do like color matched.
Here is my Molten Orange Raptor I color matched the ring on.

I will be swapping
Or powder coating them!
I called around near me and it’s $125 for all beauty rings!
I will be swapping to a wildtrak, I know some people wanting the silver one,The alloy beauty ring can be misleading. Depending on vehicle color, lighting and picture quality. Figure I get some opinions as to what matches best or just paint it! And if paint is the way to go ... what do you guys have in mind ? Process, prep, texture ,,
Matches really well .. A better picture definitely would help decide. Ive only seen one grainy photo of this build to judge. Also would like to see a Carb Grey Bronco with these wheels
This build looks good with out a painted ring as well, But imagine all black like the WT ? Or Red ... btw I love this build ...
NO ,, This A51 Rig must have a paint job for the beauty rings! Or is it the photo quality? Only A51 with these wheels I have seen.
Love classic OJ white, This can work .. But would all black or all white beauty rings look better ,,,, probably
Painted white ring on the Filson build looks great ... Put them on the 2-door above and we have a winner ... or tacky lol ?
Surprisingly alloy beauty rings look really good on Cactus Grey ... Ive mostly seen the all black wheels on most photos of CG
All Black! This looks way better then expected. Seems nobody likes their Bronco in black. Paint the rings black and this rig is even more aggressive!
AMB on the move, beauty ring stands out for sure .. Contrast on full display, Thoughts on this combo ?

I did the paint work, I painted them back in 2014. holding up great, only a chip from unmounting/mounting when I had a flat fixed. they haven't really seen much rock crawling type off road though...

Not a fan of all-black wheels so I actually prefer the lighter more natural metal finish. However, if I were to do a color, I'd go powder coat for durability over paint.
on further thought, im thinking a dark gray would look good. I feel like it'd be hard to perfectly match the black wheel, so doing something a bit darker than the current silver-y color i think would look good.

The alloy beauty ring can be misleading. Depending on vehicle color, lighting and picture quality. Figure I get some opinions as to what matches best or just paint it! And if paint is the way to go ... what do you guys have in mind ? Process, prep, texture ,,

Interesting you said that I was planning on painting them with Por15 paint so they can easily be touched up. They make many colors.The alloy beauty ring can be misleading.

There’s a black 2 dr picture around here with the top off and the wheels seem have a matte black finish kind of. Lugs and everything all black. It’s probably my favorite picture of the bronco. If I can get that exact combo, I’ll be golden. Not a fan off blacked out vehicles but this ones different.
