What should I do?
Through the gauntlet of the winter my both of my rear wheels have developed some awesome flaking! YAY!!!! Should I (A) Try and fix the problem by fixing the flaking by getting them re-chromed or (B) sell them and get 2 more matching rims and run a 18-19 combo?
Another thing... if they get re-chromed will there be a difference in shine and so on??? |

Re: What should I do?
sell them or use them (or your stock wheels if you still have them) as winter wheels, then buy new wheels, and dont let your new wheels see winter. im sure re-chroming them wont be cheap... Last edited by Kovz : 03-21-2008 at 03:16 PM. |

Re: What should I do?
If they are the only rims you have.....Sandblast them and get them powdercoated black....Or paint them yourself and start saving for new rims...Then you have winter and summer rims

Re: What should I do?
yeah I kinda wanted to keep them cause I love how they look on my truck plus I don't want 20s bc I wanna lay frame soon without too much fab work. I dunno I'll see what happens and call around. i may just sell them and get a new set. Thanks for the input!
Oh yeah and i am a dumbass for leaving them on this winter. First time and the last time that happens. Fvcking salt demons! |
