Don't know what color your truck is, but there are some really nice wheel/ tire combos on black vehicles posted here. Black Trucks only need apply! No offense to the rest There are way to many options when it comes to wheels now adays. Hopefully once you find some that you like, they'll have them available in your size/ offset.

You beat me to it before I could go and correct it.

Anyways there are a lot of black and chrome rims that would look good on gunmetal grey. Good luck!!

I have black Rockstars on mine

and check out this thread to see different options

Check out Rim Zone.
Be sure the rims you get have arround 5.5" to 6.0" back spacing if you don't want them sticking out too far.

Your stock backspacing is 6.2, so these will stick out 2" more because the offset is -12. If you want them to be more like stock you will need to look for a positive offset like 30 for a 9" wide wheel. Its really hard to find wheels with a lot of positive offset like the factory wheels. Discount Tire Direct has a few with a +25 or less offset.

These two wheels will stick out about 1" farther.

I forgot to add this website, it will tell you how far your tires will stick out with the offset you choose.
