if you are just cruising around and never plan on driving your car like the performance car it is then chrome would be just fine ....

the weight difference you mentioned can effect the overall performance of your car ... a basic look at the weight issue can be summed up as

5 lbs. of unsprung weight is equivalent to 1.5 usable h.p. or .1 seconds in the 1/4
