Chrome or Black Chrome SS wheels?

Which do you guys like the most? I am torn. I like the brightness of chrome, but seems chrome is kind of going out of style. The black chrome is great, but then again can look like a dirty rim sometimes.

I think chrome reflects the ground too much. Black chrome may be better than chrome. Polished or machined - can't go wrong IMO.

Chrome is too shiny for me, and I have never been a huge fan of black chrome. I would go silver like this:

Personally can't stand black wheels. Chrome I love, accents and gives the cars some contrast.

When I have a few extra bucks, I will get the stock 20's in chrome.

Chrome will never go out of style. Some Black wheels make cars look like army vehicles.
