    I don't like either, too me black looks like you are running a spare tire and chrome is a bit too blingy. There are some exceptions - some chrome looks good and i actually like some of the black rims with polished lips. Personally i like the look of aluminum wheels - they just don't seem to make very nice ones for our trucks.

    I like both...I currently have chrome wheels that i'm looking to sell or trade for black ones! I think chrome make the tires look better and give the vehicle a touch of class if done right. Black is just tough looking...period!!! :cool:

    It all depends on you and what kind of look your going for :cool:
