Need your opinion

I am driving a white 08 F350, a leveling kit is coming in the near future and I have found some rims that I like. Gimme your opinion as to which one you think would look better! Truck is all White Lariat Crew Cab with Chrome front grille

Thanks for the input guys!!

Is there any other black in your truck? Door handles, anything? If there is, i'd say go with the black ones as they have enough chrome to go with your grille. If there isn't, go with the Chrome.

True, but black doesn't pit, or at least does't show pitting as bad as chrome....

I say black. I can't tell you how many sets of wheels I've been through in the last five years and I will never own another chrome rim. Ever. Black holds up to the elements much better than chrome and I think it is lower maintenance. Chrome shows even the slightest amount of brake dust and dirt and pits much easier than black wheels. A buddy of mine has a truck just like yours and runs the KMC Rockstars which are much more black and it still looks great.

Also, a satin black wheel like the KMC Rockstars or Monsters will show less dirt and brake dust than a gloss black wheel will.
