    Can't go wrong with chrome. But since your getting lighter rims your car is really going to fly now!

    i think chrome doesnt look good on sport cars. it only looks good on luxury cars. IMO

    Mainly because of bumps and shit in the road. I'm running low profile tires and a heavy rim. It feels like i'm falling in a hole. But on the other hand i still haven't installed my konis and got the front end alignment. If i felt a significant improvement in the ride i think i'll keep um. I figured if i'm going down to 17 i might as well go lighter=not chrome! Really not a hundred percent sure yet, supposed to check out some this weekend.

    Damn, my rims look just like jigga 225. Damn, ya'll are making me unsure now! Hopefully after my Konis are installed and i got get a front end alignment i'll make a final decision.

    No, i'm not "scared" of them. I'm starting to go in another direction w/ my car, SPEED! Chrome and speed do not go hand in hand. But i have fell in love w/ them they're my babies. I don't know i'm confused!

    well........ i personally do not like chrome on cars such as our 3 geez, chrome only looks good to me on SUVS such as expeditions and navigators, but id put on the new alloys and go farther in your car making it go faster in every way you can.... either way... you have a 3 geez at least

    4runners are in no comparison to Navigators and Expedtions. Chrome looks bomb on any car if it's the right wheel!
