I need new wheels... taking suggestions.
Alright guys, I'm going to be in the market for some new wheels before too long. Here's a picture of the one that's in the best shape that's currently on my truck....

The other ones have more missing "beauty rivets" and the chrome is starting to crack in a few places on some of them as well. They're Akuza Blade wheels. I like the open spoke design, and I would like to stay with 20's because I don't really want to buy new tires as well. But, if I find a set that I think will really set it off, I'd be open to it.
Any suggestions guys/gals?
Here's the truck as it sits now.

Holy **** that first pic is huge...
I am a huge fan of the factory 20's. I think it's a clean and good looking setup. I plan on picking up some SSS 20's and powder coating them black or a dark grey in the future.

To the OP, those wheels are very difficult to clean well, which is why the look so bad. I hope the price for them is very very low. They are made cheaply, in China, and are also VERY heavy. Unless you really really like them, try to find something else. The tire shop I used to run sold them, they are not good quality wheels.

Or just buy them black, brand new from the factory. You should call me.
