RE: lets see em,white h3 w/ black wheels and chrome wheels
My H3 isn't all Birch White, as it has the custom two-tone paint, but thelower halfis still BW which should help. Also, my wheels aren't all black, but they're mostly black.
JMO, I think all chrome wheels on a white vehicle do not look that great. That's just me. The combo of a light color and chrome do not compliment each other very well. There's no contrast to make anything "pop". They sort of wash each other out.
What's most important thought, is that you like the look. The nice thing about the H3, unlikemost white cars and even other SUVs, is that there are little bits of black trim here and there to give some contrast. Add a black roof rack and brush guard, and you have even more contrast.
Whatever you decide, make sure to get a matching spare for the back. Really completes the look. One of my pet peeves is seeing someone with really nice aftermarket wheels, and they still have thedrab looking (to me anyway) stock wheel for a spare.
Anyway, good luck with your choice. It'll look nice either way.
Here's a couple pix.

I have 18x9 Moto metal 955's that are amachine alluminum finishand black. Tires are 35x12.50x18. To me from a distance all black wheels look like you just took the hub caps off your wheels. Kind of rice burner looking. But it's just my opinion. We all like different things.
