20" PVD Wheels!

20" PVD Wheels!
So I have a 2016 FX4 Lariat SC in Ruby Red. It came with the 20" OEM PVD +44 wheels and 275/55R20 crappy Wranglers. I have since done several mods including replacing the front coil overs with BOSS 0-3" ones, replace the UCA's with ICONS, replace the rear shocks with BOSS ones (and soon to replace the rear blocks with 3" blocks). I also bought +0 offset TIS 535V (PVD) wheels for a better stance, and KO2 275/60R20's for other obvious reasons.
ANYWAYS...
Although I like the "design" of the TIS wheels, the PVD is not nearly as bright as the PVD on the OEM wheels. Which was really disappointing to me. I HATE BLACK WHEELS! Sorry, but they make the truck look like it has two big voids on each end. I much prefer the shiny chrome look as there is chrome all around already.
The TIS wheels are somewhere between a bright PVD and a black PVD, and don't cut it - even though they claim to be BRIGHT PVD. So I'm looking to replace them with something that will stand out like the OEM wheels did. Any suggestions? I understand Fuel and several other manufacturers are pulling their PVD wheels because of finish problems, however I live in New England and chrome wouldn't last at all. Any suggestions and pics of 20x9's would be appreciated. It just seems like every one I find online has been discontinued...

wait. what?
I wanted chrome too. I went with 20x9 PVD Moto Metal MO976s. I put them on in May of 2016. on December 7th I crashed my truck and it sat in the body shop until March 4th of this year. so it saw very little winter. all four wheels have considerable pitting and chipping around the lip. they have no curb damage or anything like that and my truck is washed religiously and carefully. I'm hoping to have a new set of wheels by the end of April and then it'll be easier to start a warranty claim once they're off the truck. but needless to say, I'm thoroughly disappointed in how they held up and wouldn't recommend them. I've heard Fuel wheels are better but I have my doubts because all of the wheel companies use a similar process.
