Just blaze!! The wheels look great man and chrome on blue is so perfect. I knew you couldn't resist. Once you go chrome you don't come back, as long as its a classy chrome wheel. Big congrats man..

OH MY GOD , MAN !!!!!!!!! 
I stay off of CL for a few days and what do I see? I wasn't expecting to see this thread until sometime in May.
Dude, words cannot express the heart-attack I almost had just now. I just let out a huge *WHOOAAAA* when I saw this thread sitting at the top of the forum.
My God, these wheels look soooooo good in chrome I can't believe it. A fine choice, I must say!
You don't have to thank me for any of this, thank whomever keeps stuffing your pockets full of $$$$ to do all these mods .....you have to be setting some kind of speed-modding record for CL at this point. WOW!
Whatever you do, keep an especially watchful eye on whomever mounts the rubber on these when they do the rears. With them being so wide, the rear wheels are place UPSIDE DOWN on the mounting machine. A careless person could do some real damage. Ask to see their equipment FIRST. As you know, I had a mis-hap with ALL FOUR of my wheels thanks to NTB/Tire Kingdom.
Still waiting to see how they handling the situation before I post up about it.
Anyway, I apologize for checking in so late, just wanted to express how stoked I am for you!!! Let's see these bad boys rollin'!!!!!!

price
AME wants to be a revered brand
and with that comes a great price ......
and here they are
these are for 19"
$825.00each for the fronts and $847.00each for the rears
total for 3D chrome is $3344.00
