Default Getting new rims; need some opinions please!

I am putting a 2 inch leveling kit on this Wednesday and then getting new rims and tires. I am trying to decide between black rims and chrome rims. The reason I want opinions is because of my trucks color scheme. My truck is pictured below. What do you guys think?

I think your truck looks great with the factory wheels. I think you should stick with those, look nice. IMO, if your really wanting different wheels I would go with a aluminium wheel before either chrome or black....black especially. Your paint contrast has a lot to do with the overall look. I'd stick with aluminium or chrome if your heel bent on changing out the nice looking wheels you already have.

Whatever matches your bumpers would be cool. I agree with HEEL70 , stock or similar finish

Appreciate the opinion and I was thinking chrome too. Think black would look only okay.

I'd keep the stock rims. They'll look fine with some beefier tires.

Yep, keep those stock wheels and step up the tire size a little.
