I just looked at your truck on your profile, I would go with black because the paint on the lower part of the truck and your rims are black, that way it has kind of a black theme around the lower part of the truck.

Black rockers = black nerf bars.
If you're worried about rust then just check them out every couple months and if you see some rust then wire wheel it and hit them with some Krylon flat black (or gloss if they have a glossy finish) and call it a day.

I've used the Krylon flat black on my brush guard in a few places and aside from the dip in the powder coating from where I sanded it you can't tell it ever had any rust.
