    Chrome looks great on the lighter colors to make it not look so bottom heavy. But on the darker colors, black wheels look awesome.

    cHROME WHEELS SUCK

    At least the VX OEM ones do. How many people have had the chrome peel off and the replacements are expensive as well. Poor quality and I do not think painting them black will help the peeling

    That's my experience, too.

    11 years later though, it's not enough to stop me from finally going to a bigger wheel.
