Are you crazy! Chrome is awesome. Vette owners pay big bucks to get chrome wheels. Why would you spend money to get rid of nice chrome wheels? Just my opinion, but I love the wheels the way they are. I know a lot of folks have wheels that are black, or polished and I would never frown at their choices, but if you don't like chrome, sell them and get what you want, don't spend money to do away with chrome wheels...

The wheels in a gunmetal gray color would look good.
