Is it a pain in the ass to keep chrome rims looking good? Is there a difference in quality between a $175 chrome rim and a more expensive chrome rim?

Well if you keep your car outside you are going to have to polish them more frequently to prevent them from rusting.

I don't mind mine, they aren't too bad to keep clean. And it depends on the size of wheel you're getting for $175... Could be good, could be bad, just try to find other people that have that wheel and see if they like it before you buy it. One piece of advice I will give is that if you live in an area where you get snow and the DOT puts a lot of salt down, I would put your stock wheels back on for the winter to protect your chrome wheels.
