Tell me what you think - Wheels

I was searching CL for a spare tire and came across a complete set of 6 lug rally wheels for $75. They need to be repainted, but they are pretty solid, 15x7 and 15x8. I currently have 15x8.5 aluminum slots. My dilemma is whether to keep the slots or ditch them for the rallys. Thoughts? Also, if I go with the rallys, I would like to hear opinions on trim rings (yes or no), black walls or RWL, and paint color. I think I'm leaning toward a gloss medium gray, a flat olive green, or gloss light tan. The truck is a flat black. Interior is a mix of gloss black, natural and black leather, and faded red/yellow door panels.

The rallys have a 4" BS and the slots only have 3". The rallys will get pulled back into the truck a little more. The way the slots look from the back (low) has always bothered me and more BS should help that a lot.

Here's what is on there:



And here is a test fit with the rally wheels:
