Looking for some unbiased opinions (if that even exists...)

I went with the sterling gray and added a little black to it. I would like to add the glossy B pillars and tint the front windows this spring. My only complaint that I have is that I wish I could have got a Lariat in the sterling gray simply to have leather but I am living with the premium cloth. Its amazing how the appearance of the color changes just by how much sun or clouds there are.
I have since added a 2010 Lariat chrome package grill. Now just patiently waiting to get the summer wheels back on.

Stick with the silver. It's a lot more forgiving on dirt, scratches and other imperfections. Plus, silver hides the spider microscratches from washing significantly better than black.
After having owned one black vehicle, I can truly say I won't own another unless it's a garage queen and a weekend warrior car (ie. sports car).

imo, black with black wheels begins to all blend together. I like bright wheels on dark trucks. The dark wheels look great on lighter colored trucks.
FWIW - I have black and love it - but don't plan to change from the chrome wheels that are on it. Yes, it shows dirt more - but the payoff when it's clean is worth it to me.

I noticed you have the Novakane wheels. I've been looking at those along with the BMF S.O.T.As, XD Rockstar, and XD Monster. Really just can't decide which I like better.
You didn't mention having a leveling kit; do you have any issues with that wheel/tire combination rubbing at all?
Another quick question... I've noticed other people mention summer/winter wheels; what are you using for summer wheels. And why have a set for for both summer/winter. Only ask because I'm trying to decide if I should keep my OE wheel/tires for spare set or sell them.

The Novakanes are my summer tires and the stock rims are the winter set. I live in Iowa so in the winter they use lots of salt. Since I can't wash my pickup as much as I would like to in the winter I use the stock ones in the winter since they will hold up to the salt better. With the price of the novakanes I did not want to risk ruining them by running them in the winter so I bought an extra set of TPMS when I ordered my wheels and just have two sets.
