yeah, just found out from my bro, its wheels america, you can stop by and check out their work and tell them exactly how you want it. that way they dont take short cut on chroming the wheels. why pay for the shipping both way when youre in NY and you can inspect it as you pick it up.

I bought 4 Sequoia 17" chrome wheels that look very similar to the GX wheels( 5 split star)from Ebay used in relly good condition for $440 delivered. You can see them in my avatar. My point is sometimes you can hit it right and find a good deal on ebay or craigslist, that way you have an extra set for the brutal northeast winters. I left mine on a little to long and got a few pits in between the spokes. I can imagine driving the entire winter would do to chrome wheels. Also take a look at PVD chrome wheels. They are the only chrome wheels with a clearcoat that have a warranty against peeling/pitting.

I noticed the word Chromed. Do not think your getting chromed wheels when your buying Chrome painted wheels. Did you know there is no such thing as Shadow chromed? Shadow chrome is a paint used by BMW etc but it is not an electroplated chrome. I would prepare my own wheels and chrome paint them rather than pay for the service.
