Like the title says I've got tired of my black saleens and decided to get some new wheels. I have decided on the fr500 style but can't figure out what finish I want Beeing American muscle has like a billion different ones so these are the three I'm down to like to here other people's opinions on which one would look the best.

Definitely the machined coming from personal experiences owning a chrome wheel they just get scratched a little too easily.

Well it looks like I have it narrowed down to two lol. Would be happy with both I guess but idk yet, wish I could by both and swap them out every now and then lol.

I think since you've had black wheels on the car the machined ones would be a nice change. You really cant go wrong with either one though

I like the look of black chrome but did they ever fix the peeling issue with all the black chrome wheels? It may be a non-issue now but I know for awhile, some people were having trouble with the black chrome wheels peeling.

Black chrome usually looks like chrome that really needs to be cleaned of brake dust

[MENTION=9404]Paul[/MENTION], I will allow such a sinful comment to fly, just this once, because I <3 you haha!

I'm with [MENTION=10558]duh09[/MENTION], has the quality of black chrome been raised, because I know they definitely had really bad peeling issues before.

Well I didn't know of any issues with the black chrome, but now y'all are making me sceptical about it. I don't want my wheels peeling lol. But I agree on the black chrome it's all in the perspective u look at it, it could be all kool and unique or u could think there normal chrome wheels that need to be cleaned.
