black GS with chrome wheels? ghetto or decent?

I think that it all depends on the style of rim. chrome IMO doesnt automaticaly say ghetto like the crazy *** styles you see from player, lexani, etc that make me wanna puke. it also depends what type of look you want to go for. I think that if fyou are going with a chrome rim, it should be classy and clean, something that would set it off but not very flashy. Im not at all sure of the build quality of the Sevas, but that is a nice rim and IMO would look good staggered on a black GS....I have chrome on my car and I get my share of compliments, then again i could be bias!

Crazy, I don't care much for an all chrome wheel on a silver car, if I had silver I'd go silver w/chrome or polished lip. I'm not a big fan of the whole black wheel trend either. It all depends on your tastes! Almost any look can be done well and look great or be a disaster, I think you're on the right track and you obviously know what you're doing modding a car! Those Sevas would look good, if you can get a good deal try them out. If they're local maybe you can test fit them and see what you think in person before you commit to buy.

do it, chrome looks good on a black GS. I think a silver wheel on a black gs is too plain, unless the wheel itself is a really nice design. There's nothing wrong with chrome, look at HRE, Asanti, Work, iForged....they all have mostly chrome wheels, its just the Lexani's of this world that give them a bad name haha

never been a fan of chrome, but have an opportunity to purchase a staggered 20" set up that is chrome. ive spent the last few nights searching and i cant find any pictures of black GS's with decent looking chrome wheels....keep finding them with wheels that are so god awful it doesnt help things.
the wheels have a lip on them which would make it pretty easy to paint the centers matte black or something like that. i just cant make up my mind what i want to do.
if anybody could post up some pictures i would appreciate it!

well, as long as you do a tasteful wheel, chrome will be just fine. try websites like rbwheels.com
they have ultra JDM wheels, lots in chrome finishing and for the price you're gonna pay on those; you can get a very NICE set of chrome wheels.

What not to do...
I was speechless... anyways I think chrome can ruin a car. The stance is very important as well as any add-ons. Lexus did a great job with the chrome trim so theres no need to add more. The only piece I think ties well is the plate over the tag in chrome and the exhaust tips. Trust me when I say this, bc i felt the same way you do right now.
