Default Will my truck look good with black wheels?

Im in debate of getting new wheels for my truck. Want to stay with the 20's but not sure if I should stay with the chrome or go to a black rim. The outer lip of my stockers are starting to oxide and are looking like crap. So thought about getting new ones. The black wheels that I am looking at are the XD Hoss Wheels. Figured the gloss black would prolly look the best vs. the matte black. But that is why I want you guys' opinion. Let me know..thanks

If your keeping the rest of the chrome stay with chrome wheels. If your going to blackout the rest of it then go with black wheels. Just my opinion.

Im a little bias, but I think black wheels would look 100x better.

Yea I know what you are saying..but I don't want to black out everything..want to maybe leave the bumpers the way they are and maybe get some black grill inserts, maybe some black headlights..but any opinions on what would work I will take..

Here is my next dilemma possibly..i want to use these wheels for all year round..with the winters we have had here in northwest ohio, I don't want to worry about my new wheels to go to crap right away..i do wash my vehicle quite often and try to keep the salt off but its hard too when it doesn't get above freezing to wash it unless you want your truck to turn into a big icicle.

I am all one for not alot of chrome, but yours is tasteful. It would look odd with black rims. The chrome rims tie in with all the other chrome. Maybe a rim with both black and chrome?
