Polished or chrome


What are the pros and cons of going polished or chrome for wheels. I want chrome, but a little more pricey.

Polished are a PIA to take care of and if you're gonna buy rims go ahead and get chrome .. alot easier to take care of and look alot better ..

Chrome have a thicker layer around them. If you scratch polished wheels they look like crap. You have to scratch chrome wheels pretty deep to get through all the chrome.
