Yeah personally i hate polished wheels for two reasons 1) i have had polished in the past and they were impossible to keep clean adn took hours to polish them and get a dull shine to them and 2) they tend to have a whiteish look to them if they are not polished right and good. With chrome all you basically have to do is wet them down, soap, then rinse and they are so shiney

I know for a fact that there are cheaper places then what i found but then again who knows how good it'll be, but the cheapest i found was 10.00 a inch.
