    Your truck would stand out so much more with the chrome wheels. Black is so played.

    x2...the tires look so much better now with my Chrome Moto Metals! I had black for a year and I'm really happy that I went with chrome. I think it looks great as long as the wheels aren't very big...thats why I stuck with 16s :)

    If you keep the black ones paint your chrome white...get rid of the chrome. but if your going to keep the grill and bumper emblems like they are then go with chrome. either way you should do an AAl in the rear so you can have it level and do nicer tires...go for black and paint everything and paint the emblems black

    BTW, Everyone, I know I need the AAL or a block in the rear. Im working on that. With the money from selling the wheel's im going to buy that. Or, im willing to trade wheels for an AAL + cash if anyone is interested. Thanks for all of the good advice.

    Chrome - SUV's.
    Black - off-road trucks.
