A whoooole bunch.

To be honest I'm not really sure. Shouldn't be more than a couple hundred though, but I'm guessing.

Ck out this link http://www.alsacorp.com/ their chroming process is amazing. Then hopefully there's a shop in your area that handles this kind of job. Alsa sponsor my custom Pontiac Solstice GXP & you can not tell the difference on our wheels from real chrome wheels. If you like go to my web site www.fearone.com & look at wheels on Solstice. Good luck & hope this helps.

It doesn't cost that much. Check out www.camarochrome.com they will do them and you just send them your old wheels.

I used US Wheel Exchange and was pleased with the purchase.

Thanks for the help

i did my rims at USwheelexchange . they will ship you new chromed ones and you ship your stock rims to them.. they are 20 mins from me so i didn't have to ship anything

I am already paranoid about curb rash...I would probably have a heart attack if I chromed them and then curbed em. Hasn't happened in over 32,000 miles...would happen in the first 10 if I went chrome I swear but would love to do this.

Permastar coating is the stuff! It's not chome but itlooks just as good and is as durable as powdercoating. Give a look into it.

For the price, I'm a fan of buying replicas so you still have the originals to repair if curb rashed or use with winter tires, slicks or full size spares.

Factory Reproductions

Mine are on order with LA Wheel. $800 to do a wheel exchange for the chrome stock rims.

I'm going with the replicas with a extra set of tires..... keeping my originals, for someone 25 years from now. lol
