That's actually a good question haha. My dad has always had chrome rims and everything else blacked out. - now he has finally gone back to just plain alloy, with everything else still blacked out, haha.

I try to get rid of as much chrome on my car as I can (and if I'm not mistaken, other than small things there is no chrome on my car - black badges, black trim, etc) (I'm 19 as well btw).


Personally, I don't think the chrome rims look too bad on a black BMW with chrome trim... but I would never do it myself.

What is this "older" crowd you're referring to? I'm about to hit 40 and I have never liked the chrome look; it was the first thing to go on all my vehicles.

Not a fan of the colour. But rims are fine, just a little common. Excuse for powder coating them?

Not a fan of chrome on Bimmer.
I think Black chrome will look good though.
