New Rims! But dont know if I Like them.....You be the Judge!

I posted a similar thread on 6mt.net but I am just looking for some opinions.

I had some Stern's on the car from when I bought it a couple of years ago. I bought some Sevas S-star's from my buddy because he sold his Z. Just don't know if I like the chrome instead of the Aluminum look.

Opinions welcome!!!

Sterns


Sevas

I got them for $500 with tires in perfect condition so I am just testing the waters with them......plus the tires on the sterns were shot!

I was thinking of getting the centers finished in black!

I would get powder coat the SEVAS, Not feeling the chrome at all!

The Sterns look to small maybe a drop would make them look better.

Brushed finished on that Sevas would look sick.

actually, anyone know if you can brush a chrome finish? I know you can with a polished finish, but have no clue on chrome.
