thanks for the heads up. I was considering these. Back to the drawing board... They do look beautiful.

I had my OEM stock wheels exchanged for US Wheel's "bright" chrome. My car is stored in the winter, is not a daily driver and I wipe the wheels off after every ride. No sign of scratching yet.

I took one of their black chrome wheels off the shelf, went outside, set it next to my OEM wheel on a block so that it was at the right height, stood back about 15-20 feet and looked at it for the longest time in the bright sun.

Conclusion....that maybe you, but it ain't me!

Thought the finish was guaranteed for 5 years 100K miles is this not the case?

Nice wheels!

Does this page look familiar? Check out the smaller pics

I just scraped one of mine :upset:, and now I'm trying to decide what to do. I really wanted to get a black chrome finish to go with SIM and black stripes.

Oh yeah! I was hoping someone with that paint scheme would get black chrome!


I'll be looking for those pics.
