Looking into getting some wheels here soon and can't decide if I want to go with the murdered out look or chrome. I do know that I want these wheels for sure though. A few weeks ago I was really feeling the chrome, but I think the black is growing on me. What do you guys think?

theres a fine line where anything is too much. black face chrome lip could be nice if there is more chrome on your yukon. If you go solid black with everything on the truck and lower it id go black. but if leaving it the same height go chrome. just my .02

if my tahoe was lowered it would have black 24's on it. the only chrome on it is the bowtie and grill. with clear headlights. bumpers and all are black. but since its lifted. chrome 20's it was. black is less maintinence on wheels too

My vote is for black chrome also. At F-body Beach Bash there was a car there with black chrome zr-1s that almost made me regret not going that route. That car actually won best wheels in the show too.

No offense, but if those took best wheels in a show than that is sad.

i think black chrome is beautiful on a black car myself. you get both in one how can you go wrong with that. i have a friend that has a black mustang with black chrome wheels and it looks great.

Man, this is tough!

I don't plan on lowering it. I hear nothing but bad things about the ride quality with the current lowering kits on the market.

I do plan on blacking the rest of it out. I still need to put the black emblem-less grille in and remove the Yukon emblems. A friend of mine has some blacked out Tahoe tail lights just like the the ones above, I just need to go by and get them.

Here is how it looks since I removed the side moldings. Please ignore Lisa's head in the picture, lol.

Don't hate because you are stuck with 15" hubcaps.
