any body have more pics of chrome zr1s on their car, Im trying to justify buying chrome over polished. If I can see that it looks that much better than I will spend the extra money for it.

Justification for chrome over polished?... the polished are a severe PITA to keep looking good (cleaning & repolishing). With the Chrome ones, you just wipe them down and get on with your day .

I think the chrome ones are badass if you are going for the bling factor. I like the polished ones if you want a wider rear rim that looks close to stock.

still a fan of chrome. it looks good on all cars, the only draw back is that it seems like everyone has them.

I got Black Rims on my RED 3rd Gen, and I am going that route next year on my WS6. Red on Black has a street look you just can't get from chrome.

I Voted Black!

I just bought a pair of AFS Chrome ZR1s 9" & 11" off Ebay. I paid $695 plus shipping. I will have pics in a couple weeks.
