I like them both, but you have to decide yourself between attractive sport look and pure sport look

PS Nice looking car

Likewise, I'm not a fan of chrome, but that one looks pretty good.

I think for the look you're going for, it's black although the chrome looks damn good too.
Nice ride

I also am not a big fan of chrome but when i put those wheels on i was shocked by the look and how well the chrome accented the car, so i drove them around for about a week to see how i liked them, but ended up switching them back to the black bc i think it goes better with the look im going for..
