Does anybody agree with me ?

WTB sidewall.

Its amazing how much suspension it takes to make up for very little sidewall.

Great looking cars Jeanius and 2010_5thgen. I have found through personal experience that the old school crowd are the ones that like chrome wheels and the younger generations like black wheels. I'm by no means saying that if you like chrome your old, but take my father and I for example I wanted to but a set of black rims on my black Z71 his reply was to go with chrome. I personally can't stand chrome wheels if I dont get black wheels that I'll get a wheel with a machined surface but def no chrome.

the truth is is stop being girly about whats in style and whats not, just pick what you like. It doesn't matter what other people think of your car as long as its the way you like it.
