Default Wheels Overload

So I have wheel confusion and need guidance. I thought I wanted a machined lip until the dealer said that going through a carwash with them would degrade the clear coating. I know what he means as the harsh scrub + chemicals tarnished a set I had years ago.

I want something unique, but it is an everyday driver and will be going through the regular carwash.

He then suggested chrome which I am ok with but don't want to look like a bling'ed out rapper.

hat are peoples thoughts on the 2 Crave wheels as they seem to have our 5x127 weird PSD.

Number 3. The chrome on my citadel is the number 1 thing that I hate, and I just couldn't see myself replacing the chrome capped wheels with more chrome aftermarket wheels. I wish the option was up to me if I wanted all of the chrome accents. The last pic looks great. I would choose 3 then 2 and the 1st one I wouldn't do at all IMO.

I personally like number 1 the best. But since you have a Citadel with all the chrome, number 2 would flow best with that. Number 1 would be better for an RT or Crew IMO. I hate number 3.

Check my 22's thread. Chrome lip ftw!

I really like the gloss black A607 it gives the vehicle the look you desire without the blinged out look and lets you roll with style that's not over the top, especially since you say you don't want that bling look, but chrome on your ride would look hard as he!! (that means it would look great). However, having the same vehicle as you I must say I would go with #1 first then #2 next followed by #3 last. What size are those rims you're looking at? I think that will make a difference too because if you keep the 20's it keeps that same original look if you change the style or finish but if you size up then you get that blinged out look you don't want. Also it depends on the tires, do you want it to extend past the tire well of the DD or even?
