Make your own decisions about your car. Also, I'm so glad that fucking retarded show Jersey Shore got cancelled.

I would assume you made that comment because he's from Jersey right? Not everyone from jersey fist pumps FYI.. Op, just buy another set of rims to your liking.

I vote no chrome

Maybe paint the plasti-dip on the wheels?

However if you go this route, make damn sure you've covered every inch of the wheel with plasti-dip, otherwise you'll get paint on the wheel and have a VERY hard time getting it off.

Ask Sharksbreath, he knows what I'm talking about.

Just take the PlastiDip off and leave them alone.

Look around the forum and see what you like on other TLs. There's a lot you can do besides chroming stock wheels

Agree'd

Chrome looks like crap IMO, I have always either avoided chrome all together or blacked it out/color matched. As for wheels chrome drag wheels or oem chrome wheels on muscle cars are good other then that don't do chrome.
