I know of a few people that had thiers chromed and it looks AMAZING! the cost was 125 per wheel plus shipping from cal chrome i beleive.

Dont do polishing, the upkeep is horrible.

I plan on chroming mine one day soon.

Looks better chromed, but I have heard it weakens the wheel and have you checked what these wheels are selling for if they are in original condition? There are not that many around and they are getting rarer by the day. Check that value out first maybe with JonB, but not on Monday!

Looks like I'm the odd man out. Chrome belongs on a 55 Chevy. Polish belongs on a performance car.
Right there with you. I'll add that painted one piece rims (like stock ACRs) are way more appropriate that fancy schmancy three-piecers. Blasphemous I know.

The only things shiney on my car are the radiator and the throttle-bodies! And you can barely see either one. :D
