I think it depends on the color of the ride.
Dark colors look better with chrome and light painted cars looks better with some shades.

imo.

I would agree. If you have a darker car... then it's going to look better with the chrom rims. But the lighter colors, especially the white ones look good with different color rims. Black would look nice with a chrome lip on it. I have a BSP tC with chrome 20's...

You have to go with what you like. No matter what you do there will be people putting it down.

its all about ur personal taste, not what others want. i found a set of enkeis that r almost factory color. most people think that they r factory. personalization is the key. regardless of ur designs, it is ur idea of what u want to drive. dont follow the status quo. i have seen cars that i wuld not be seen dead in, but its not my car and therefore cannot complain about their taste. check out my pics for the wheels to give ya an idea
