I agree with keeping the chrome. Keep it simple, less is sometimes more.

Even though I like the black wheels, I say you should stay with the chrome. It looks perfect like that, black with the chrome looks very clean. nice ride

Thanks for all the compliments guys, i love the chrome rims too, but i just think its time for a change. Ive had these rims for like 2 years, and im getting bored of them. I think after i get the black rim syndrome out of my system, i will come back to chrome, but this time i would get some CCW 505's or Iforged aeros. But ya we will see what happens, cause ive kinda been thinking of trading it in or selling my car, and getting an 04 cobra, so i dunno yet...We will see..lol

You can always try gray or silver wheels, whick also looks badass but different. This will give you an idea, maybe somebody can post better pics though.
