Its a lot less maintenance to keep chrome clean, it doesnt tarnish, and doesnt need to be repolished constantly.. plus it doesnt get fine swirl marks as easily as polished.
Plus chrome really doesnt weigh that much more, since the chrome plating is not that thick.

Yes, that is also a popular option for many as it does protect the polish.

Some dont like it because if there was a curb, you wouldnt be able to polish out the scratch without having the wheel re-cleared.

Every option has its own positives and negatives, this customer just happened to go with chrome
