    Thanks for the compliments.
    They are 18" XD Series in black with machined accents and chrome centercaps wrapped in 285/65/18 Hankook Dynapros. I'm very happy with how nicely they sit on the truck and only needed minor trimming of the front inner fenders and removal of front mudflaps.

    What about polished? Take a look at my gallery, I have polished rims. They aren't all bright and blinding like chrome. Out of your two pics I would go black. I hate chrome.

    Yea man polished is nice. I used to have a set of polished ponies on my 5.0, liked everything about them except having to buff them occasionally. I ended up going with black and machined for my rig.
