RE: 20" rims
Chrome Clad are your basic steel wheels with a plastic chrome "hubcap". Polished Aluminum are just what it sounds like...cast aluminum wheels that are polished. If you honestly didn't know (and it sounds like you honestly didn't, so it's all good), then you'd never tell the difference that the chrome clad is just a plastic cover. It looks good and looks like a real chromed rim. There were discussions on here about a year ago with people just realizing/being informed of this, and they were stunned!
The aluminum wheels aren't as "blingy", but can be highly polished if you are so inclined to a bling on-par with chrome! I'd say that they aluminum wheels are harder to take care of, as they require a bit of polish and elbow grease every so often, whereas the chrome are just wash and go. I personally prefer the more "subtle" look of aluminum.
For some reason, the CC wheels sell for more stock and seem to have a higher resale value (steel wheels over aluminum???). Can't explain that one. It's all mental marketing, me thinks!
Hope that helped!
*EDIT* FWIW, I've got a set of aluminum 20's and tires for sale. PM me for more. I just need to get them out of my dining room!
