Black or chrome?

I used a chrome wheel with black rotors http://i1182.photobucket.com/albums/x454/tonymccraw/IMG_3539_zps9gc36gqe.jpg (http://s1182.photobucket.com/user/tonymccraw/media/IMG_3539_zps9gc36gqe.jpg.html)

I went with a chrome 21" wheel and chromed the front end - the front fender being black gives it a nice look

I would go with a Contrast Cut.. I think an all chrome wheel is too much when you have chrome forks.

^Contrast cut is perfect balance. Chrome begins to overtake the bike at times and would not look as good as a nice contrast cut wheel.
