Default Chrome or Black wheels for my TA WS6?

I'm finally in the market for wheels! After doing a few engine mods now i'm looking to lower the car and get some wheels but I cant decide if i would rather black or chrome.

I'm leaning more for black with a chrome lip..... no matter what I go with I'm in serious need of some sudgestions on the setup. How big? What size? how wide? etc. i want the setup to look mean but not tacky. What say you guys?

Chrome wheels look great when they're clean, but too many of them seem to pitt easily. After saying that, I would still want chrome wheels on my car. I'd get 17 or maybe 18 if you want/need new tires. Check out oewheels for some good packages on replica wheels.

I like the black with polished/chrome lip. Stays cleaner easier as well.

I'm thinking about doing 17X10.5 in the front and 18X12 in the back. Do you think that would fit and look good?
Pictures would be awesome if you have any of your setup and wheel size.

Not sure you could fit 12's in the back without tubing it or some intense BFH modding
