Default Chromed Mag wheels?

Anyone chrome their mag wheels? I've seen a couple of companies offer the service and wondered how they looked on a bike?

I don't know but I have been thinking the same thing. If you do it, please let us all know who & how it worked out. I think the wheels on my bike would look awesome in chrome.

Yes,.... I agree the Low Rider and Superglide's wheels both would look good in chrome. I would consider doing that in the winter when the down time wouldnt be so bad. And it should be a pretty good savings over buying a new set of chrome wheels, which would be around 1000+ each.

The place I was considering using Chrome Pros Plating will ship you chromed wheels and you ship your wheels back after you have the others installed. This reduces the down time.

I have an 04 Lowrider and they quoted me $275 for the front wheel (13 spoke) I already have a deuce wheel for the rear. Not bad but I think I'll wait until winter.
