polished or chrome

Which is best, I am not a big cleaner type, and the truck sits in the driveway or yard quite a bit.

Is the chrome finish worth the extra 100 bucks?

Looking at the MB Razor.

I'd go with chorme. Polishing aluminium is a PITA and you will be doing it a lot to keep polished wheels looking good.

if you can afford it go with chrome, unless you don't mind polishing. I have polished and I HATE polishing

if you dont like cleaing then chrome most defintely, nothing worst than polishing and buffing out polish just to put wax on it to try and protect the finish. good quality chrome and you can pretty much just use soap and water and then dry it off and be good lol

Most definitely chrome. Personally, I am kind of obsessive about cleaning my truck and having to add wheel polishing to my routine would probably lead to a divorce . However, a lot of the wheels that I like (Eagle 187, MT Classic Lock, etc.) only come in polished. There are a lot of guys on here who have polished wheels and keep them looking very nice, but I hear that it is fairly time consuming...up to an hour per wheel for polishin.

Chrome, but they require some elbow grease too!
