Should I get chrome or not?

I'm having trouble deciding whether or not to get chrome wheels. Here's a couple of pics of them, one chrome and one of them with a mirror finish and powder coat. The last pic is one of the rims currently on my truck.

Let me know what you guys think.

Thanks,
Caylon

Chrome is the only option in my opinion.

I you go forged or billet you will have very little maintenance issues. If you go cast you will be polishing them every other week.

My opinion is if you go with a cast wheel then get chrome, if you are looking at a wheel like IForged, Fikse or HRE then the polished wheel is a good choice.
