To Chrome or not?
I have an Iridium Silver 2007 C230. I came aross this vehicle
http://autogalleryimport.com/vehicle...Y_2940626.html
and saw that it has chrome wheels...ebay is offering to do them for 785 to ship and mail it to them... Whats ur guys opinion? they do look nice on the black car though! Im not sure how it will look on the silver though maybe overkill?? OR just spend the money on OEM projectors that I have been comptemplating over the place 4 months lol

If you're going to spend that much on new wheels, at least go away from OE and upsize them while you can.
As for chrome, it really depends. Sometimes, the style can be so neutral that silver, polished, brushed, matte, or chrome won't make too much difference. I got chrome wheels for my coupe (pix below) and while I normally would never go w/ chrome, was fairly ok w/ the choice.
... Maybe because it was a white car though...

haha*...and ya I wouldnt go chrome...you lose too much of the wheels dimensions and curves...it takes focus of the wheels themselves and puts it on the shinyness! Although there are cars that look sexy with chrome like the corvette!
