chrome stock wheels?

[jims94vmx]

anyone actually done this? i am tired of trying to keep the stock aluminum clean and stop the pitting and crap. if you did, where did you get it done and what kind of prep did you do if any. also did it hold up well? thought this might be a lot cheaper then new wheels for 2k. thanks.....

Jim,I would contact Sean Morley.His chrome is top shelf.You may want to do this over the winter,turn around is probably slow right in the begining of riding season.

If you don't wnat to chrome them, you can get them powdercoated any colour you want. It is cheaper than chrome too.

Near chrome powder coat is pretty nice.I have it on my valve covers

I have a few cores on hand so downtime would be virtually nill. They run about $350 each exchange plus shipping (you may want to install new bearings at that time too since they have to be removed anyway - the rear cush drive rubbers can stay in).

anytime. Price is probably going to be 10-15% higher sometime later this spring since the price of the materials at the chromer are going up.
