Must have been done not so good it is as durable as any other chrome as long as done correct. But you pay more for the black chrome. I have a set in the for sale section that is spot on for a reg c7 not z06 set up. Robert

I have Black Chrome on my V2, had CCW 600s Black Chrome on my V1, they look better than both black and chrome, very unique, they will look lighter / darker change based on brightness of day, they scuff easier, but are definitely a crowd pleaser.
I have a spare set of OE C7Z rims and will do black chrome when time allows:

Definitely chrome if you want that exterior to "pop".

To each their own. I like chrome - more chrome.

Well I am over 50 and Black only for me as I had chrome on all my C6's. On the C7 their is a lot of Black accents on the car that match the rims!

Triple black I love but not sure if it wasn’t.

Just an old geezer from the muscle car sixties. Cragars on the Chevelles then. Factory Chrome on our 2005 Corvette.

I am 57 and have never had a car with chrome wheels.

I prefer painted wheels or brushed metal. But everyone has their own preference.

No chrome!

Both chrome and black chrome can be very pretty on the right colored car. Just realize you're picking a finish that's not as easily repaired from curb rash and the like as a painted wheel. Knowing that going in, enjoy your choice!

It's totally a preference thing, no one can decide for you.

I do believe chrome wheels makes most colors "pop" more as has been mentioned.
"Chrome black" does "pop" more than standard black wheels.
I don't like how black wheels can blend in and look like empty wheel wells from a distant. A good looking chrome wheel highlights a C7 from any distance.

Not saying which is "right". Both are good looking. But here is ours for reference

Black chrome... IMO chrome is too much bling for the 'vette and pure black is a non starter... If I spend a chunk of change on rims, I want to be able to see and enjoy them, and black wheels look to me like something's missing where the wheels normally live...

On the Z51, Chrome + brakedust = black chrome ?
black + brakedust = flat black
so you have more options ! just add brakedust.

On A black car,black rims don’t show that much.With A black car the chrome rims really bring out the paint.

Like the black chrome, I’m selling a set of z06 reps in black chrome in the for sale section. Make an offer and give them a new home!
