Default Thoughts on new Rims

I Currently have the RBP 94R 20" Chrome with black inserts with a 38x13.5 Toyo open countryMT

Tires wear like crap for the most part and don't need the full blown mud tire so I'm trying the new Toyo Open Country RT in a 37x13.5

I ordered the 86R Tactical by RBP but have two weeks before they come in. Just trying a new look. What do you think about the black on black look over the chrome? I kind of liked the chrome wheels because it seemed to break up the black but am a fan of the black. This photo is obviously a quick photoshop jobber' but am not 100% sold on the look yet. Either way they are ordered. Thoughts?

Looks way better with the black in my opinion. You literally have almost nothing else in chrome except the door handles. Those new wheels have little hints of aluminum, I would do the black all day.

Awww, cool, another blacked out truck.
Can't say I'm a total fan of the style of rims, but I would go with a chrome set, myself.

I like the black wheels better. I am not a fan of the all blacked out look, but you have the chrome door handles, badges and wheel insets aluminum, so it has some contrast.

Respect the opinion, could have done without the sarcasm if I'm catching it correctly. I can assure you this is not just "another blacked out truck", bro.

I think the chrome is a nice, eye-catching contrast to the black. I was never a big chrome fan, but on some vehicles, it just works. Since I can't find the OEM wheels for my truck, I'm now looking at chrome.

Side note, loose the ebay ricer headlights and it would help clean up the front a bit. I like the choice of wheels and tires the more I look at them. Chrome wheels dont do well in our Kansas winters.

I think the black fits the look and style of the truck better than the chrome ones do.
