I like chrome rims though they seemed to have fallen out of favor with a lot of folks around here but it kinda depends on the style of wheel. Some chrome can look classy and some can look real ghetto. Personal preferance thing.

Yea, no one likes chrome, in fact many thing its "ghetto". MY opinion, if PROPER rims are chosen, ANYthing can look great. as for bronze... I'll keep my opinions to myself.
Just stay away from the "plate" style chrome rims (the ones that are practically just a solid rim. Get a nice lip, proper stance and offset and some nice spokes (5 is always best )
however, you make a good point bringing up the color. The mica green is a bit harder to match with color. Look for the Mica green thread and see what others have done and make a good choice, but make sure to choose what YOU like, dont look for approval!

Color match wheels? that some atl shizznits right there. Jade Mica car, with jade mica face wheels and polished lips will get rocks thrown at your car. Well, I would throw one atleast. Chrome is not a bad choice but can be an overkill on a green car. I'd do a brushed face with polished lips. Or the BMW M6 wheels. You can pull most rims off if you're slammed as fock! Just my two cents.
Is this your color car?

Here we go with this again. IF I had $10 for how many times this has been stated, I would make Scrooge McDuck jealous! What in the heck makes chrome ghetto??? Especially being that the "ghetto" chrome option on most luxury cars cost more. I don't care if it was 30"s, what about the chrome makes it look ghetto?

I have chrome rims so go easy. Most gawdy, ghetto looking rims are done in chrome so that is where the "chrome looks ghetto" comment for most people comes from. Cost has nothing to do with weather something is considered ghetto. Just because you paid $4000 for rims doesn't mean they aren't considered ghetto. "Ghetto" is more in regard to the style of th wheel and most styles that are considered "ghetto" come in chrome. Here is an examples of what I consider ghetto chrome wheels. Don't get me wrong these wheels would be considered ghetto, in my opinion, no matter what the finish but the chances of seeing these in any other finish than chrome is very unlikely. Also the chances of seeing these wheels outside of the hood is very unlikely. I've lived in the hood and now out in the burbs so I can tell you which rims I saw there adn what I see out here.
