Anyone have a pic they can share, thinking about chrome for my Caviar.

That is very nice! I am sure in person they are even more striking. I personally would be too concerned about scuffs on my rims to go the polished route (I have already scuffed one already and needed them re-finished). In any case, avoid curbs and enjoy!

I really like this style of wheels here... chromed.

And this is the color I like the most - Stratus Gray.

Those are the polished 20" Orona wheels. I actually like them a little better than the 20" Kasuga's I have because they are probably easier to clean. The twin spokes on the Kasuga's are too close together to be able to easily get all of the grime out.

When I get a chance I will try to upload pics of my car. I have the polished Kasugas and They stay fairly clean. They are competely cleaned after washing it.

I have the polished Oronas and I'm not very happy with them. They seem to be plated and each of my wheels have a couple chips in the plating from rocks and other road debris. I'm planning to swap them out this spring.

IMHO the car looks soooooo much better with the C pillars painted the body color. I wonder when Jaguar is going to admit they made a design error and correct this.

Not an L, but a little chrome. Lexani CVX-55's.

Those are 22s right? I think they look a tad too big for this car, but the design is very nice. It kind of "hijacks" the attention from the car lines to the wheels. Those would look perfect in 20" IMHO.

Yes they are staggered 22's, I like the way they fill the wells. However, this will definately be the last time i put 22's on a car...a tad bumpy.

That's a heck of a low profile tire. Hope you don't hit any potholes--that's a bent rim waiting to happen! I like them though.
