    Well,

    I work for a company that has things chromed and it DOES NOT weaken the wheel. Thats a line of bull shit. Our supplier does chroming for the major automakers and they do the rims too. So it would be pointless if it weakened the wheel.

      I'd say just buy any other chrome wheel with what you'll be spending. There are definatly enough rims in the world to make your car different from others, the sald shooters (chrome or not) look gay but thats just me.

          i had originally considered chrome salad shooters for my car(she came with the hubbies and steelies), but changed my mind and decided to go with something 17". THen I got the NZO's (which suck as far as quality), and now I have Cragar's(Bullitt style) in gunmetal.

            Chroming does make metal more brittle, on a street car makes no difference, on a race only car that is subjecting parts to extreme loads it makes a difference. Flint bumper mart does decent work fairly cheap, there is only one other place I know that does good work, they are in Tenessee, and it is the best in the nation, backlog is 2 years (flint bumper mart does pretty close to what the factory has which is a step below show quality)
