Rocker C (08) rims...
Hey guys I bought my Rocker this year...and every time I change something...I get on HD Forums...and find great pictures and ideas...and then order more parts and start saving more $$$ for more mod...is an addiction...LOL
I have the stock rims on my rocker...and would like some ideas...not to expensive on improving the look.
Chrome? I found on the forums a place that you can exchange the stock rims and get them chrome for around $900...are the chrome rims hard to keep clean and will get scratch easy?
What about paint or powder coat?
Any places on the web to look at? prices?
Thank you in advance...

Personal opinion is that it's not worth caroming the stock rims. They will look a bit shinier, but for me I would rather out that money towards some different wheels. Not sure why motorcycle wheels have to cost so damn much though. I wheel costs more than a set of 4 aftermarket car wheels.

What about powder coating? pros...cons?

That depends on your style / likes? I went with Fat Spokes but DNA sucks to do business with... There was a really nice set of custom wheels with rotors and pulley a few months back but they were 2k... if he still has them you could probably get a good deal. Tons of cool rockers on here if you are looking for ideas.

the chrome option that I found is from chrome pros plating, have you or other members used them before?
