What do you want? I like alloy , but weight is my reason.

Just remember , when your driving your car , do you like the rims on it?

it all depends on what you like really...and whether you want to race with them or you want them for looks...chromes would be kinda heavy to race with, but they would look real nice, especially if you have a dark exterior, especially black, which i'm assuming you have by your username...but alloys would be the way to go based on price and weight i think

Definately alloy. Go fast but don't attract the attention.

I have the Kantan C-5's. They have the polished lip but the rest of the rim in grey. I like them because they draw attention to my car but not too much! Also they make my max look really clean.

Just an idea, but for a black max, have you ever considered the black opal finish from Konig? Not too heavy, looks very tight.
