They are not chrome, they have a high polish with a powder clear.

Keep the HREs. They look much better than the OZs IMHO.

Those of you advising this member to feed his wife and daughter less often are just sick.

I just got a set of new (used) shoes for my rides. 19" HRE 540's wrapped with Nitto Extreme 555's (245's and 275's). The tires are 100% NEW and the wheels are used. One front wheel has some minor curb rash with some clear peel and the other front has super minor curb rash (can't see without knowing where it is). They are fully polished with black accents.

The wheels are sweet ass but I just don't know. I still like my 19" OZ's Raffaello III's. I amd not sure which to keep. I want to keep both but can't afford it as I am one of the many American's that has been on laid off. So you all need to help me. Which wheels to keep? The OZ's are pretty much is awesome shape with no curbing and very minor everyday wear signs.

Like a nut, I installed the HRE's on the left side of the car and kept the OZ's on the right. Looks kinda of cool. Tell me what you all think?

Keep the HRE! Not only that it looks so much better, it is also much lighter!

Actually the OZ's are lighter by a few pounds.
