Chrome is a fad that comes and goes over the years, If its not popular now just a few years and it will be again

imo chrome does not look good on the Z because the other accents are brushed(no offense bubble or Chris(3hree).....the door handles contrast with the wheels, again imo....

Rob, I don't know what you're smoking.. You saw my car in person and you KNOW I don't have chrome wheels.. Mine's brushed aluminum-like.. You alrite?

I really don't like chrome wheels to begin with, and especially not on sports cars.

so you want some nice chrome rims, try the rmc metal chrome volk sf challenge wheels. As you can see they have the bling factor but are super jdm as well =). In fact I plan on trading in my gold sf challenges to a friend for these.

I have a redline and I feel any chrome rims on a redline would look cheesy and tacky.


On a silverstone, white or silver alloy they would look ok depending on the wheel. but red, no way.

I like chrome on blue, which is what I have. Not so much on the redline. But go with what you like!

if you pay the right dollar and you pick the right wheels, it can look good; i.e. Work Meister S1 with chrome center and lip...DING!
