Default Chrome Rocker wheels. Help?

Hey guys I know a few of you chromed your stock Rocker wheels and was wondering if you could post some pics of them on the bike. I would also like to know where I can exchange them.

Thanks in advance.

Try Jay at chrome pros plating, http://www.chromeprosplating.com/

http://stores.ebay.com/Chrome-Pros-Plating

I just exchanged my Rocker "C" wheels and they look awesome. Took about a month from a month from order to delivery and then install.

They work on a exchange program with a core refundable deposit, and they even have the pulley available.

Don't forget to change the spacers and look into doing the rotor and calipers.

Here are a couple of pics of the wheels, I will post pics sometime this later this week of my completed Rocker.

Well I called them and they said they did not have any in stock and wanted me to send my wheels to them I sure hate that because that ain't going to happen, it has just started getting warm here in Georgia.

Are there any other options other than just buying a set of customs? I really don't want to spend $3500 on wheels.

If that's the case then you're better off to have a local chrome plating house do it for you, I'm not surprised about the wheels being sold out.

I started my chrome Rocker wheels the middle of January and finished last week, close to 6 weeks and this was during the snowy time.

Here are pics, the rotors really finish it off.

How much do they charge to chrome your wheels? This should be easily done locally, right...

Yea I guess I'm going to look into getting it done locally. That sucks because that means the bike will be down for awhile. Oh well thats what I get for waiting till the last minute.

I looked on Ebay and all I could find is a front wheel. Oh well I guess the search continues.
