Can't decide on which wheel to put on my ride. It's down to these 2 wheels. The only thing that I have decided on are the sizes (20x9 & 20x10) and the color (black face & chrome lip).

The only chrome on a wheel should be the lip.

I was thinking the same thing. That's why I'm leaning toward getting a set with a black face and chrome lip. Just got to find a set that I like.

go with the black with chrome lip. the black would go nicely with your shadowline trim. i agree with these guys about not going with a full chrome wheel.
