Chrome wheels or black???

I have a 2004 4 door Super Duty and i am getting close to needing new tires. I have been leaning toward new wheels also but i have some questions about the polished wheels. For example is it hard to keep the finish on the polished XD series wheels clean in the winter. I have talked to a couple of guys near me that say winters will ruin the polished wheels. Is this true. My truck is white with chrome front bumper and grill and i am also considering black wheels. What are your opinions?
Thanks
Mark

Personally, I don't like chrome anything. Most chrome around here looks very well worn after just a couple of years. Brake dust is not very kind to it either, so expect to be polishing them front and back every couple of weeks too if you want them to last.
