Sounded pretty extreme huh?
I've had some pretty harsh comments thrown at me for having chrome wheels...
Besides, you're talking to a guy that polished his ENTIRE LS1 engine, including the block, so me liking polished/chrome items is kind of obvious.
Corvettes with black wheels do look much better than Camaros and Trans Ams with the same treatment...

Depends on the application, overall I'm a big fan of polished--not too much bling, but still noticeable.

I usually like them depending on the exterior color.

Depends upon the wheels and the car. They looks good on some, not so on others.

Some colors better than others, I like mine, it's a whole lot better than the wagon wheels.

Not my favorite. But with a deep polished lip, they look pretty good.
