What you need to do, is muster up the *****, and paint your rims black. Being ones like that, it'd be scary, and I don't know if I'd have the ***** to, but I think your truck would look sweet blacked out. Chrome is harder to do, because you can over-do it. Black is harder to. So you might find something sweet that's chrome, but with so much, it could be over-kill. I'd like to get rid of some of my chrome. But don't know what to.
Edit: Here's a picture of what I think you should do, or what might look good.

Only did one rim, because can't Photoshop those that nice. Took off the pinstripe, and the badge. I think it looks cool. Also blacked out your taillights.

i have always wanted a blacked out truck. there is one dodge ram in my town that is completely blacked out. it looks so nice, i need to get a picture of it but it is the pre-facelift ram reg cab which i dont like as much as the 06+ i thought about just trading my rims with someone who has black 22's. actually chrome ones are worth more so maybe i could get 24's with not much more $ but then id have to get my grill black too.
how hard is it to paint chrome? i dont want to ruin my rims because they are not cheap. like ried69 said, its gonna take a lot of *****
