wheels: chrome or silver metallic finish for a Satin Silver Metallic 01 CL-S

i'm looking to get a set of wheels from ronjon to go along with my new aero kit....

so for a silver ride, which will look better (we'll ignore the costs deltas for now)?

1. the brilliant chrome finish.
2. the silver metallic finish.

i haven't decided between Servos/Inspyres yet. i love the Servos, but they're only available in 18" so i may go with the 19" Inspyres.

Silver servos will look real good, sometimes the servo is mistaken for a 19" wheel for the way it is designed...

these are 18" with 235/40/18, imagine how much bigger they would look with 225/40/18

i've never been a real big fan of chrome on silver, so i'd say polished aluminum or silver metallic finish. I'm personally leaning towards gettin some Inspyres since i've loved them since the first time i saw them, but that's just me
