Chrome wheels (don’t judge)

I am very old school, I have owned an SS396, Dz302 Z28, 427 Tri-power Stingray and a bunch of other muscle cars. The one thing they all had in common were chrome wheels. I want to put chrome wheels on my 18 2SS. Does anyone know of aftermarket chrome wheels? I would chrome my stock ones but I want wider tires all around. I would appreciate any help.

Thanks
Fritz

Chrome wheels

Check under Tires and Wheels by tire rack on Camaro6 forum. I started a thread on this site called old school.There are some Pictures of Rally Wheels on some Fifth gen Camaro's. Don't know if that is what you are looking for. I love Rally wheels myself.

MRR offers a full polish and clear coat on their wheels.

Looks really bright and shiny, and not as heavy as having the wheels chromed.

I loved the rally wheels on the 1st gens. It would be interesting to see them on a 6th gen.

Fritz are you just looking for that reflective finish or do you specifically what Chrome? Reason why I ask is because the chroming process hasn't improved, it's still a plating process, so we're adding material to the wheel which is VERY heavy. Not only that but chrome isn't durable, over time it will cause rust. Because of those issues we do not use chrome, rather we do a full polish on our Forged wheels just like these:




HRE P207:




HRE Classic 305:


HRE 540:

Hello

well if you want to go wider and brighter we have a couple of choices, everything from our FS line up
https://www.mrrwheels.com/collections/fs-series
and any of the Camaro inspired wheels
M228, M716, M650, M017 and new M755 can all be polished or chromed for you.
all are available in 10 front wide and 11 wide for the back.

Chrome is cool! Always will be. And it lasts a hell of a lot longer then powder coat.
