I just went back out and noticed the 2 on the drivers side almost match





so which side looks better?

When you say you swapped wheels. What does that mean? How did you swap wheels.

I like the regular chrome vs the black chrome.

They have an exchange program. You put down a deposit and return your old wheels once you get your news ones

The black chrome looks better IMO. I'm thinking of doing the same with Detroit Wheel but they also offer a satin finish. Hopefully it's less shiny and less chomelike. I'm looking for a dark look.

I like them both. I’m an old school chrome guy but the black chrome looks good too. I don’t mind the the chrome center cap and lug nuts against the black chrome. I actually like the contrast.

If the pictures are correct then it appears to me that you’ve gotten 2 reg chrome and 2 black chrome wheels. Maybe a shipping mistake? If that’s the case I’d tell the wheel company to send me 2 wheels they can make me the best deal on regardless of color and send the remaining pair back for credit. Will that work?
