Chrome silver
 
Hello, what is the difference between chrome and silver wheels. Other then the chrome being shiner and more expensive. Just wondering any ideas?

chrome is reflective, [cheap] mirror-like. silver is 'matte'

stick with a solid, less blingy coat :thumbup:

Look at these images, taken last weekend
 
My X5 has those wheels in silver, installed last Friday. I chose the silver finish instead of chrome, (which I think really, REALLY looks like it was on sale at WalMart.) The silver has a much classier look.
