Welcome to the LOC! B)

I say chrome, just because I can't get used to dark wheels on cars, they always look dirty and in the need of cleaning. The chrome lips help, but I still say chrome.

I'VE SEEN A FEW BLACK BMWS AND MERCEDES WITH BLACK 20'S WITH A CHROME LIP AND IT LOOKED REALLY GOOD. I WOULD SAY BE DIFFERENT AND GET THE BLACK ONES. EVERY BODY HAS CHROME!!!!!!!!

Chrome for sure. A black 430 came in to the dealer after tinting, and it had those 7 spoke 17s in chrome on em, and immediatly i dropped to my knees :o and needed a new set of underwear. I want to see pictures when you get em on.

omg this is one of the hardest decisions to make i think im gonna have 1 side black and the other chrome

on another note how many inches do u think i should drop it to eliminate any gap w/o rubbing if its possible to lower while riding on 20's

I perfer a luxury saloon in black to have the chrome lip and black rims

it all depends on if you wante everyone to say wow look at that chrome

or the real enthusists of cars to say OMG that is soooo slick and stealth.

I just ordered mine in chrome before getting them powder coated cause I want to see them on mine first before I have it done. I'm 99% sure I'm going to have them powdercoated, but I figured I take some before and then some after. Mine is blue though, so its up to you. I like to be different also, I say powdercoated. Just make sure they have a deep lip for the chrome. B)
