Default Lariat Limited - Change Wheels to What?

I just recently bought a Lariat Limited. I like the white wheels (I know they are an acquired taste) but I was thinking about putting the stock ones away and getting a new set. My question is: What rims would you buy? I was thinking maybe an all black wheel might compliment the white body? What wheels would you buy if you had the truck? I have put some pictures of my truck below to give you a frame of reference.

Weird. When I look at the thread the pics do show up. I followed the directions on the FAQ as to how to attach them (first time I have ever tried pictures). What am I doing wrong?

Someone sent me an e-mail saying the pics don't show. In any event, appreciate the recommendation for Rockstars. Would you go with Black, chrome or Machined Black?

I would say black wheels for white trucks. XD or Fuel are just a couple to choose from.

My wheels are dirty but here's what flat black XD Monsters look like on a white truck.

I think black wheels look horrible on any truck, they remind me of a 1985 police cruiser. That said, A LOT of folks like them and if it's your thing I say go for it. Me? I've always been a sucker for polished aluminum.

I hear you on that Justi. And maybe that is why I am tredding (no pun in intended) really cautiously here. My current thinking is I stay away from something ALL black, so it has some black, some polished alum, and maybe that would look the best? This is a wheely big decision so I want to make the wight one (couldn't resist).
