Default Fuel Wheels choice

I'm buying out my lease and will be looking to upgrade the wheels this spring. Have been going back and fourth with different options. Right now I have the factory 6 spoke 18" chrome wheels. With the chrome package, I want to offset it a bit with the black & chrome accented fuel wheels.
So far my favorites are the Contra, Maverick and Revolver. A big factor is also ease of cleaning them. May keep the stockers for winter wheels if I can find a good place to store them. Going with the BF KO2 for tires. I utilized my photoshop skills and came up with these. What's the verdict?

I'm a fan of the Nitros, Heaters, and Kickers. Both the Heater and Kicker are new this year. I have the Rebels on my truck, big fan.

I like the Rebels but don't want more gray on the truck. Not a fan of the all black wheels. The Anthracite I like but still too much gray for me. Don't like the color combos of those other wheels. I really think I should stick with the Gloss black and milled to go with the magnetic color. It's a tough decision. So many nice aftermarket wheels to choice from.

What about the chrome options? Normally, I don't like chrome, but since you've got the chrome bumpers, that might tie in the best with the vehicle.

True but It's a lot of chrome right now. I like it but so hard to keep clean.

Here's another option with Anthracite. Not bad.

Regardless of wheel choice, I think solid black would be a misstep. Black with machined accents would be much better. Bronze, if you end up swapping out your chrome bumpers, could look absolutely fantastic. And then, of course, anthracite.

Default Lighter in color

Those anthracite look way better than any of the others. Since the truck is dark gray, a lighter color on the wheels helps offser to maintain the right balance of lights to dark.
From a photographer / artist perspective. So many guys put absolute crappy looking wheels on their trucks and it really shows, even when the viewer has no knowledge of color or composition, but crappy looking wheels just look bad. It's obvious.
