I personally like the black, but both options still look good.

A combination of both looks good. Personally, I'm not a fan of the all blacked out look.

I saw something on a Challenger today that gave me a hell of an idea.

Honestly...with the wheels black I think the truck lost it's "identity." It was just a big smear of gray/black. With the chrome it looks more like a custom...at least to me.

The black looked more custom IMO, but if you like the chrome then cool. It still looks good either way

Thanks guys. I thought I had a line on some wheels but that fell through so I think I'm going to try and make these a bit more unique than just straight chrome or black plasti-dip.

Id love to do Chrome but they would be tore up in no time with the mud dirt and sand I drive through on a daily bases.
