I'd say chrome. Here's a pic of my '98 Z with chrome wheels. You may not like my choice, but gives you a little idea.

What about the new Anthracid TTM's? Or black chrome ZR1's? I vote other. Chrome is played out on F-bodies IMO.

A rim is a thin piece of stamped metal that is used on wheels to mask the lip. A wheel is what you are refering to. Man that bothers me.

An NBM car begs for a chrome/polished wheel



Don't mind the missing cap in the rear, one of them came damaged in the shipping

black wheels are getting extremely played out. go chrome or get some niced polished wheels. or be truly original get some contrasting color for the wheels.

Boyd Cottington Smoothie II's would def be the best for NBM. I dont really think black is played out, theres only so many options for wheel colors out there. The design is what is key.
