Default Polished!
Me personally, I like them polished over gloss black. BUT!!! I looked at black chrome wheels for a mustang I had and they were awsome!! Black chrome would be the best on that truck!

On your truck, black would look good. I say go for it.

Check out the plasti-dip anthracite with a glossifier. The anthracite would look incredible on your red truck. Plus, if you get sick of it, you can peel it and go another color for cheap.

I vote black, I'm dropping my factory 20's off next week for gloss black powder coat. Going on a sterling gray metallic truck.

I'd say to go for the glossy black, would look sweet! Or like [MENTION=154847]akhenaten[/MENTION] said, give that plasti-dip anthracite a try first!
