Default Silver On Black?

I have finally saved up enough money to buy rims but dont know which ones would look best. I have been seeing alot people painting there srt-10 rims black which looks really good. I also found these gianelle tropez wheels which are sick but cost $2500 with tires of course. I really like the black but nor sure if chrome would look better on my truck. oh yeah and the truck is silver. sorry for the pic quality. but if you click on them it shows them clearer

since you're looking for opinions, here's mine:

as stock replacements, black wheels look goofy on silver...meaning, you're gonna put some black 20's on there w/ regular wheels on a silver truck.

i'm only like the black shoes on silver combination when you're going w/ a high walled tire due to a lift. like "perfectly tuned's" truck.

i have the 20 inch moto metal rims on mine , mo951's and gosh damn they look real good (my truck is black) . ..but i think black rims on any dodge ram that ive seen around town here defantely look alot better than chrome. i think the chrome 20 's on dodge trucks are kind of ........(mexicanish) if you will. unless you get 17 inch chromes one with a big tires and a lift , than that also looks good.

I've seen black rims on a silver ramand it didn't look bad at all. It was lowered and had tinted windows. I think it'll look good.
