It is possible, but real chrome plating is actually cheaper. And here in So-Cal it would be about $200.00 each to plate them. Personally I wouldn't invest even 25% of that in to these wheels ... I just don't like the look. I think I'll just buy an aftermarket set for summer, I keep these for winter.

Those would be an improvement, but they're not giving me wood either. But thanks for mentioning them. And good luck with your sale

Anyone by chance know where I can find a write-up on putting rock rings on 3rd gen wheels. I know calrockx has done it but I thought I saw a right up on that here but know I want to do it I cant find it.

Thanks, Pat

I recenly sprayed my 7-spoke steelies with Krylon Silver Hammered Finish paint. It looked like the previous owner got it stuck in a gravel pit and spun the wheels. Stripped off much of the paint on 2 of the wheels. The result turned out pretty well, even if I DID do it myself.
