chrome or silver wheels

I have chrome wheels now and i love them but they do not match my car well at all. But when i bought them they were super cheap. I am looking at the motegi rt5 but they have chrome and silver what do you think would look better. I think it is a personal decision when it comes to this but would like some input.
Thanks

chrome = weight = slow IMO, but if they are really nice chrome wheels I'll look the other way

I personally think GM did the rims perfect. If I had a SS S/C I wouldn't change my rims ever, I love the stock ones...but alas I have steelies on a base model.

I know, people hate chrome rims because they are "gangster." But I love my chrome rims, because they go with the Arrival Blue exterior.

BTW: I'm not gangster, I hate rap.

And the fact that they're 18s, both factors really take away from the performance of the car.
