Chrome lips weigh more also because of the Stainless steel lip its adhere to.
IMO Chrome is only good on the lip and the rivets. On the face looks ghetto.
I like your choice of black face chrome lips. This is what I originally wanted in the XIX wheel design. The company ddint offer it as an option and for those companies that do its a frigin rip-off at an est $250.00 a wheel additional.
I have developed a method with a friend for painting aftermarket wheels that include removal of the fake plastic rivets and installation of new ones once done. Cost is est. your labor plus $75.00 dollars materials and about $100 for chrome rivets. I'll post up in couple a months once done with my project on how to do so.

Yeah I'm really feeling the black/chrome combo. The rim that I wanted is way more than I wanted to spend so I'm looking at an alternate to it. I'm now thinking about selling my OEM's and tires and getting a wheel/tire combo 20's. I need to get this done as it's starting to be a pain. Anyone want to buy my OEM wheel/tires??? I'm thinking about selling them for the right price.

Thanks, they are iForged Forza's (+32, 20x8.5/20x10) wrapped in Yokohama S.Drive's (245/35 and 275/30). In those pics I was on Eibachs but now I am running KW V3 coilovers so I am a little bit lower now.
And I've never had a camber kit and don't plan to it's not needed
