I'm a chrome guy with a certain look. Not all chrome will look good on all cars.

I agree that an all black wheel just doesn't look good 95% of the time. But a black center with polished lips looks hot on pretty much any color car.

I totally agree! All black looks just like an old spare tire. A black center with polished lips looks great though.

Platinum Silver SC's look good in chrome, brushed silver, and black with polished lips.

If by "any" you mean a black car, a yellow car and possible another neon bright car like orange then yes.

Platinum metallic is a very "light" color that needs light rims to complement it. By light I don't just mean bright but fluffy or the the opposite of heavy. So any heavy / rich / full / deep colors look very bad. Black is the worst followed by gray.

The name itself is platinum metallic tells you which colors look best. Metal or like metal colors such as silver or polished aluminum.

I had chrome which I recently painted a flat black. I'm not so much a fan of the black and I miss the chrome but I had chrome for 3 years so it was time for a change... But if I had to choose one color again it would be chrome.
