The Wheel Debate: Chrome vs. Black?

It seems to me that a lot of people base the Jeep they want off of the type of wheel that is currently on the Jeep(the black wheels versus the chrome wheels are the primary deciding factor.) Of course you can get black wheels with silver finishes and different looks to them but for the basis of this blog and the question I’m going to be trying to answer and determine the general rule of thumb will be if the wheel is a majority black then it is considered a black wheel. When the Dealers Trade Outlet gang first started selling a lot of these custom Jeeps and trucks the all chrome wheel seemed to be more popular. It seems that with a lot of the Jeeps/trucks we are selling customers continue to want to switch away from the chrome wheels and go with a black wheel. The XD rockstars and the black Fuel rims seem to be the most popular choice(and most modern looking) wheel by our customers today. What is your wheel preference? Do you prefer the chrome look or the all black wheel? Or do you like your wheels with some black and silver? Do you all have any brand preferences in regards to your wheels? I’d love to get some feedback on what the majority of our current customers are looking for in regards to wheels. We always try and stay up with the most current trends and it is constantly changing. I know our blogs are a new thing so I’m sure the customer feedback will be a slow approach at first..but please leave your thoughts and comments on this topic on this blog post! I’d love to hear what you all think on this debate and what wheels everyone prefers! Since we customize our Jeeps we’d like to put the wheels on that most customers are prefer and leaning towards! I’m sure in your shopping process for custom Jeeps and trucks you have looked at hundreds of different wheels and have even done research just on the wheels themselves. Now is the time to hear your thoughts! My personal preference is the black wheels and I love quite a few of the Fuel models that are out there right now. My personal favorites are the Fuel Hostage and the Fuel Krank wheels. However, I do think chrome looks great with certain colors. Black on black looks great but so does black on chrome! Let me know your thoughts!

Happy Jeepin!
