How do you think a set of Mazdaspeed 6 chromed rims would look on my silver speed 6? I am thinking it wont look right. Does anyone have pics of a set of chrome rims on a speed 6?

I imagine the only color it would look good on would be black.

There's no photo of them on the car, but you can do some photoshopping easily.

I don't think that chrome rims would work well on our cars.

The local dealer here had chromed OE's on a VRM in their showroom way back when. It was definitely different looking, but too flashy for my tastes. Plus, the chrome job itself looked a little shabby, iirc. Polished is the way to go with these wheels IMO. That's my plan, at least.

let me see a side view. I do have to say that the chrome rx-8 rims look good on that from that angle.
