something to keep in mind....chrome rims are going to cost about twice as much as the same rim that isn't chromed.....

personally...I LIKE shiney.....another option would be POLISHED aluminum rims....and IF you have polished rims...you should ensure that they are clear coated....that will keep the work down on keeping them shiney.

of course Polished wheels/rims are going to cost more then the same wheel that is just powder coated or left in its natureal cast rough finish....its a factor of labor and time to finish the wheel/rim.

If you want to feel like you're driving the Peugeot rally car you could put white on silver..

I have the same colour and have yet to buy new rims as well.

Just my opinion I'm consider Konig tantram in silver or going with another wheel in a darker finish such as gun metal.

I've seen a few silver cars around with darker coloured rims and it looks awesome.
