Default Getting new wheels.

I found what looks to be a nice crack in one of the wheels on my truck (Ironic, as they are Niche wheels). So, looking at summit, I kinda like the Cragar soft 8's. Just not sure what I should get, Chrome, Silver, or Black.





I really like the Chrome and Silver. The Silver I like a little more because nobody has them as far as I can tell.

Anyway, what do you guys think? Which ones do you think I should get?

Personally I can't stand black wheels. Chrome just has that look when they're clean and they will go with your bumpers & grille.

+3 on the chrome. Black usually looks great on the wall when you look at them, but when you put them on the truck, they never seem to fit! Plus they get dirty QUICK!

If you like the gray, go with the chrome and just let the brake dust build up.

I've been thinking about it all day, I think I am either getting the chrome or silver.

I think if I got the black wheels, it would just be too much black. I want to get blacked out headlights and tint, and I plan on getting tube bumpers as well with a black grille, but I think if I stick with the chrome rims, it will really set the truck off.

I guess I should have put that it would be too much black for me. I gotta have some kind of variation in the vehicle. I'm sure it looks good to some folks, but I can't stand a murdered out rig.
