Send a PM to Andy Wheeler (Forum name = Flatout), resident wheel guru. I'm sure he'll be able to help you out, or point you in the right direction.

I'm pretty sure 360 Forged does wheel repairs/modifications. I know you could send them out to CalChrome and have them redone too.

Yep, can be done no sweat. A buddy of mine just had the polished lips on his HRE's chromed.

Honestly dont, he went all out. Chromed the lips, powered the inner barrels and repowered the faces.

As I mentioned in the pm you can't take apart the wheels yourself and have it done locally, just get the specs for reassembly from I forged. If you don't want to mess with it I forged, or 360 could easily help you out lots of options.

ya im going to do it my seld for the simple fact id have to ship the wheels across country twice and would cost me a grand alone just in shipping!! But yes FLATOUT thanks alot for your help!!
