    You need the chrome rims on your truck. Then get of the black ones ASAP. IF you want I will do you the favor, I'll even pay for the shipping.

    I'd keep the black with your truck. I think your having trouble deciding because they are both fairly busy. I think your current wheels would look better if you blacked them out completely. With the shiny lug nuts and such they look slightly odd IMO.
