"Black Chrome" SRT Rims! You need to get the silver OEM ones and have them coated but it looks sweet! Check out www.permastar.com and go to the galleries. I have a friend that does it through his shop. The bad part is I think it costs $700-$800 to have it done but it is totally worth it.

BLACK!!! There is a reason that everyone is liking black now instead of chrome. Who cares if everyone is doing it? It looks better.

Here's a few pics of silver trucks for you for some ideas.

You can paint them. Mine started out as chrome and look at them now.
