My truck is pewter. I don't have any good pics uploaded on DB, just one in my profile album.

If I get the DC-1, I'm leaning towards the polished one instead of the black one. I like the look better. The black rim I don't like, wouldn't look as nice on my truck I think.

What I like about the DC-1 is the more edgy design, a bit more modern looking. The Classic II really is a more classic subtle looking rim, and it does look nice. I'm a little torn between the two. I normally wouldn't hold a poll for something so trivial .

I like the DC1 better unles you were going with the classic locks whick I like as much as the dc1
The backspacing and offset on the two rims are virtually identical (4" and 12/13mm respectively), but you're right, from the picture they may not have photgraphed the same size rims for display.

I'd go with the DC-1 in 18's. I want black wheels but i agree with you on them not looking right on a pewter truck.
