polished or chrome?

[oakley]

Thinking of buying a set of 077's and was just wondering if there is a big difference between the polished or chrome? Or what are the pros and cons of polished or chrome? any help is appreciated. Thanks

Definitely get chrome for looks!!!
But keep in mind that it takes work to keep them clean.

Polished requires polishing to keep them nice and shiny. Chrome is extremely low maintenance.

There probably is a slight weight difference with the polished being lighter.

i got chrome 077's on my 99 gagt. it's really easy to maintain. in the one month i've had em, i only polished them once. everytime i wash my car, i just wipe the rims dry and that is all. polish is hard to maintain. eventhough they have this new thing called high polish or something like that, it is hard to make shine when it has dulled out. i don't recommend polish because you cannot shine something that doesn't shine. get chrome---for looks and everything else!

Thanks for all the input ordered a set of chrome 077's from pfyc on friday april 11th should be here any day now. only thing I have to figure out now is if I should get the goodyear f1 gs-d2 or just get rsa's again but in 17"

Check out the tire database. I recommend against RSA's again, there are better tires for the money.

definatly get some pics up when they come in!!.. the kumho ecsta supra 712 seems to be a great tire for around 120 a tire(these will not work in the snow so take that into consideration)... let us know what ya decide :thumbs:
