Well, I love chrome and especially on a black car. It's the best finish imo. It's durable, easy to clean and care for and provides the most visual effect. If we didn't care about visual effect we wouldn't spend the extra coin for aftermarket wheels.
Looks great!

I have a set of LEXANI 20" chrome wheels with tires (they look very similar to the pic posted at the top of this thread), they are almost new cond. if you or anyone is interested in buying? Make me an offer...they retail for over $6,000 with tires.

THANKS, I need to re-adjust. At it lowest setting it does rub when hitting a dip in the road. For the first time doing this i actually thought it would come out all wrong, minor adjustments is all thats left. This web-site is good for learning as well. Thanks All !!
