polished or chrome?

donny82277 · February 15th, 2007, 06:28 PM

What do you guys like better, polished Bullit rims or chrome. I am thinking of chrome just for the easy cleaning. I have a set of 18x10 and 18x9 on my 03. they are polished and only 3 months old. i like them but tires are so expensive for 18's. I found a set of 17's with tires for dirt cheap and am thinking of selling the 18's? I dont know?

here is a pic of them. (mind you these are 18's)

THOSE WHEELS LOOK REALLY NICE ON YOUR CAR

Just don't get painted aluminum wheels... I've seen them chip a little. Polished aluminum is very nice, but you can't go wrong with chrome.

Suck it up and dish out the extra mony for 18" tires. They look better than 17" especially if you lower your car. Going back to the stock size doesn't make much sense.

That'll work too.

acmillr · February 17th, 2007, 07:55 AM

Yeah, I've got 17's, and I really wish I had went a little bigger out back...

neckbonekat · February 17th, 2007, 07:56 AM

It's not too late. There are plenty of 2 wheel sets on ebay.

acmillr · February 17th, 2007, 07:57 AM

Actually, I'm dealing with Chad (crazylegs) on finding some wheels right now....

Chrome is well... looks... well I'd say polished, looks more natural to the stang. Chrome is good on vintage rides. just my thoughts
