Chrome or Painted

Mstng93SSP · Sep 14, 2019

I have chrome Saleen (style) rims on my black GT. I also have a set of painted Saleen (style) rims. I think the painted look better, what's everyone's thoughts? You guys know I'm gonna do what I'm gonna do but I am just curious. The car on top is mine, the car on bottom I "borrowed" the picture just for comparison as the cars are similar but mine with chrome and the other with painted.

Sorry, caring is a requirement. Read the fine print....

Painted, I purposely remove chrome from all things I own.

In my opinion the painted ones look better.

Painted. A poll wouldn’t be a bad idea

Painted. Anything chrome these days rusts too quickly.

painted, chrome wont get you home....

I also like painted. Chrome doesn’t show the detail in the wheel as well.

Painted. Chrome looks cheap like a Chinee wheel. ( Not that that aren’t Chinee wheels, they probably are,....I’ll rephrase)

Chrome makes a Cheap Chinee wheel look Cheap(er)

I like the Chrome. Easier to keep clean.

OK, been a while on this one but I finally swapped over to the painted Saleen wheels. I bought tires off Amazon as I couldn't beat the price. 4 18" tires for a total of $280....shipped. Yes shipped...to the 50th state....you know, the one everyone loves to snub "shipping to the lower 48 only"....anyway..., the tires are Achilles brand. I researched them and they are made in Indonesia. I figured for the price I would give them a shot. They seem to be pretty well built and the tread pattern is nice. I guess time will tell.
