...x2 on black being trendy for about a decade...
depends on the color of the cruiser.
but for your brown 60, my vote goes for black rims.
they look better with mud on them anyways!
silver require much more maintence, esp. once they have started to rust, and are a beetch to keep clean.

I still like black with the Gun Metal Gray. It's not the best picture, but you can compare one 60 with black and one with chrome.

Is that a potato gun mounted on your 60? Remind me not to cut you off.

You can stuff the 33x12.5's on the stock rims but, I'm not sure how well they would hold up. I had some for a short time before I went with the 32x11.5x15's I have on there now.
Here is a pic with the 33's
