    I have an 09 Tacoma in Magnetic gray metallic with chrome grill and chrome rear bumper. I just recently bought a chrome toolbox as well.

    Okay, here is my dilemma.... I want black wheels! :eek:

    I have the black handles, mirrors, etc on the truck now.

    Do you all think it will look funny if I have a "chrome and black" thing going on? Maybe black rims with chrome lug nuts?

    Anybody have any pics of what I am talking about to get an idea of what to expect with this pattern?

    Thanks!

    I don't think it would look odd at all. I think that if you got wheels with a chrome rim or accents, it would look pretty sharp.

    I prefer black wheels with a chrome lip. I like how it provides a contrast between the wheel and the tire. That is the route I am going.

    I like the touches of chrome.
    Painting the grill was a nice touch also, I kept the emblem chrome
