Default Chrome and Polished wheels on same car?

Hey guys, I have chrome 17x9 ZR-1 wheels all the way around. I'm wanting to add 17x11 in the rear. I've found some 17x11's that are polished for a pretty good price. Now my question is, will it be really noticeable if the fronts are chrome and the rears are polished? And the 50mm spacing and 315 Nittos should fit fine right?

yes it will be, save up some more money and get the chrome. I have a friend with a black z28 who has one wheel that the company sent him after his first one was a defect and instead of sending him a polished like all 3 of his other wheels are, they sent him a chrome one. He being the idiot that he is, didn't say anything about and it looks noticable. I make fun of him all the time about so just save up and get all matching wheels

Well ****. I was counting on them both being shiny Guess I'll have to pony up some more cash.

If I polish the polished wheels, and polished the chrome wheels, wouldnt all 4 be polished wheels? Thanks for the help.

If you're **** and care about your car, you will look at your car as you walk up to it every day and notice the difference (even if nobody else can), and it will bother the very living **** out of you.

Don't do it!

I hear that. I'm one of those guys that when I look at my car all I see is the flaws. Maybe I could put a big wing on the back and some cool stickers on the side. Then people would stare at that rather than my chrome/polished wheel set up

But for the record. I'll get the chrome 17x11's.
