hey Joshbalck chrome looks great on lots of colors. You can go really dark or just slightly tinted chrome and I think it would look great. I thought about this myself but chickened out.
Plasti dip won't look anything like black chrome but it is a cheap way to give you a general idea of what darker rims will look like.
Also you might try playing around on your computer and try to get a picture of your SSR and photo shop it or whatever. Sometimes the computer may have setting to alter the colors and such.
problem is Im in MiamiIf you have a good shop local that does powder coating, there is a powder coat that looks like black chrome. We have a guy in our local car club with a 55 Chevy that had his old Cragers done with that and they look amazing. And much less cost than chrome.
hey DaveWhat I would suggest Benny, is to purchase a can of Rust-Oleum FlexiDip from Home Depot and try it on one of your rims and see if you like the look, if not peel it off (as stated on the can). This is a rubberized coating that is removable and is specifically made for rims (again, as stated on the can) A disclaimer here is I haven't personally tried it. Good luck.

Dupli color has a black chrome spray can you can clean your chrome wheel with a good cleaner and spray on as many coats until you get it as dark as you want just a thought.hey Dave
