Wheel ?
O.K. so I ve made it known more than once that I am not a fan of black wheels, but these may change my mind. With the black and red combo Ive currently go going on with my truck these may just be O.K. The other choice would be Chrome. The table in the link does not list an 8x170 lug, but it is available. Locally the black ones are $189 per wheel, but I think i can do better. Id go with the 17x9, and upgrape tires at the same time.

I like them both the black and red has a meaner stance to them along with the black stacks. The chrome ones are flashier and will stand out more.

I like the red and black ones myself. As Tristan pointed out there would be no polishing required on the black ones BUT if something happens and you accidentaly scrub a curb you will have to deal with scratches on the black

I've never like black wheels either, but my wife has been looking at them. Then she liked the wheels Costa has on his truck, but as it turns out, they offer it in black and chrome, so now she doesn't know what to do.
I'd suggest posting up a side view pic of your truck and the chrome and black wheels and ask for someone familiar with photoshop to do some mock ups for you. Then we can all vote on the shopped pics.

Here is my go at PhotoShop. I know.... not the best but I am not that good at it. Was bored with a beer and couldn't think of anything else to do. 
I vote for the black.... you don't have THAT much chrome on your truck anyways!

You mean you couldn't change the reflection in the driveway too Noah?
Got any full side shots Brandon? I like what Noah's done so far, but it would be helpful if we could see the whole truck. Right now I'm leaning Chrome, but seeing the whole truck may change my mind.
