I would have to vote for Silver, even though chrome would work. For most other colors I would definately go chrome. I went silver for my X5 because it's the Titanium Silver Metallic.

------------------
Had a '99 TL w/Navigation system,factory chrome wheels,kit,deck spoiler, burlwood shift knob and V-1 radar detector before it was totalled due to flood damage.

Now I have a '01 BMW X5
Premium Package
Activity Package
Climate Package
Towing Package
Xenon auto-level headlamps
Alpine Mobile Multimedia Station (TV/VCR/NAVI)
19" Mille Miglia Evo 255/50 front 285/45 rear.

I would say silver because they make the car look more cleaner. At least I think so.
