Someone correct me if im wrong but im pretty sure that the hypercoated wheels you see at Americam muscle are the same as the black chrome you may see somewhere else.

It says in the description at AM that hypercoates is referred to black chrome.....

Im probably going to go with hypercoated since its basically black chrome

The hypercoated finish is a little lighter than black chrome. It's almost like a really shiny gunmetal color. I like Hypercoated better.

some places call hypercoated black chrome, but there is real black chrome like on sportchic's car. I like hypercoated cause it changes color and reflective properties depending on the light and angle.

My hypercoated:

lol...Im actually leaning towards hypercoated just cause I feel like it goes with the overall theme of my car since every light on my car is smoked and my windows are tinted.

AM is out of hypercoated 18x10s anyways

Yea...thats true.

I like both...the chrome definately does pop.

I dont think I can go wrong with either really.

Why 245 on a 9" rim? I had them for my 8" rims. With my 17x9's, I have 275's. It's looks much better. It just spread out my 245 when I ran them on the 9" rims. Just wonder!!
