Default Which wheel goes better with my bike?

I am going with a 21" fat spoke wheel on the front. Have a Deuce wheel for the rear which you really won't see anyway.

I was originally going to do all chrome, but then when I saw the black spokes I thought it may actually look better due to it having some contrast. Also thought it may be easier to keep looking clean...maybe not though.

What is your opinion? It will be my deci$ion in the end, but wondering what looks better to everyone else's eye.

I think I have decided, but I am curious to see other's opinions.

For your bike, I'd go with chrome. But, I got tired of cleaning my spokes and changed to a chrome alloy wheel. It's all a matter of preference, of course.

I'm a chrome guy, so that is what I would go with.
I think the black spoke would look good with the rest of the bike though. How's that for a non-answer?

chrome - I think your bike has the more traditional style, chrome would complement it.

I think chrome would go better with your overall bike. Not having much black on your bike the black wheels might look out of place.

Black. It goes (better) with everything.
