Default Chrome or polished aluminum rims?

Getting ready to purchase a '09 2.5 S Smoke gray, has steel rims. Want to upgrade the rims. Would love to see some pictures of yours with chrome or polished aluminum rims and maybe even bigger rims..........like 18" ?

I went with 18x7.5. Size is fine, any shorter of a tire and the ride would get very harsh. I went with a machined/black face, but am trying to sell them to go with chrome. So, go with chrome and anything from an 18-20. Here's mine.

I like the rims and all, but this car looks dumb IMO with 18's. You need 20's.

I want to go for 20" because it looks good as compare to 18" rims. I have seen some photos & it looks really awesome.
