I had these installed last week, the wheel shop scratched every single wheel, on all 5 spokes. I don't know if that speaks to the durability of the wheel, or the incompetence of the wheel shop, or both... But, as with any painted wheel, durability is never that great and an artificial "chrome" finish is going to show wear easily.
I knew this going into the purchase, cause the wheels look amazing, and so far no one but myself has noticed the scratches (i was able to polish/wax them and clean them up a bit).
I get quite a bit of compliments on the wheels, but keep this in mind, my personal opinion of the final color of the wheels is this:
The pictures here on the forum appear far more 'black' than 'chrome', the wheels i received, in person, look far more 'chrome' than 'black'. Im slighty disappointed in this but the wheels still look amazing.
Hope this helps.
