I'd like to see these on blue. I'm just not sure how the chrome would look on a blue.

Barry, do you know how much more the chrome wheels weigh than the regular stock wheels? Thanks.

The chrome wheels actually weigh less than the stock wheels.

Chrome wheel - 21.50 lbs
Stock wheel - 21.70 lbs

Fine by me! I was just waiting to see them on one. Finally, the big unvailing is near. Someone can Photochop it to any color any way you go with it.

Thanks a lot for those pics! Looks great! I'll be the first to ask a Photoshop expert to change that color to Winning Blue, pretty please!!

Are those rotary center caps extra, or do they come with the new wheels?

I'll be ordering soon. My wife actually saw these and said "We NEED those." That is the best thing I have heard in about a month. Need the tire pressure monitors too. Any discounts coming on those or is that asking too much?

Dang...

So, no return credit on our existing wheels? I was actually half serious with that question, as some shops are actually doing that.

Oh yeah, I like them. But not enough to drop $1430 + shipping on them right now. Wonder how much I could get out of my stock wheels? Hmmm....

Omi,
I have an idea:
(Light bulb above head shines!)
Just have your rims dark-plated.
Quite a bit cheaper than selling and re-buying it'd likely take about 48 hours of downtime,mabye 72.....
I don't like chrome,it's a bit too hi-pro for my tastes,if anything I'd
be powder-coating my rims Ti Gray metallic.....and I JUST might do that,leaving some original finish as accents.......hmmmmm.......
