I personally like black rims more. Reason 1. A lot of people have crome, but not many have black! (At least where I live at) Reason 2. Black seems a little mor luxury, yet at the same time speedy. Reason 3. Once you go black you cant go back!

i agree. you cant mix dark with bright. it just doesn't work. black and black is hot.

If you keep the chrome sealed with a paint sealant, they will be easier to keep clean. Black on the other hand is painted, and if cleaned with the wrong products, will fade over time. I cant tell how many times I have seen nice paint on cars with faded black rims.

I vote chrome.
