Have you exchanged wheels for chrome ones?
Have any of you done the wheel exchange with some of these companies that do chroming? If so, what was your experience and how good were the wheels?

I did the exchange. Did off of ebay. Don't remember the company but the chrome looks great and is holding up. I believe they gave a 2 year warranty. And the company I used shaved the rims smooth too, no little nubs on the stock Road King wheel. I am happy with the deal I had.

Same here. There was another dresser wheel thread recently and I posted the company name I dealt with on eBay. I'd have to look it up again, but if you search my posts, you can find the company. I ended up with less that $600 in the wheels themselves after the exchange, but then I replaced the rear wheel bearings, had to pay the HD shop to remove and reinstall the bearings from the stock front wheels to the new chrome units, and ended up buying new tires, front and rear. I'm totally satisfied with the deal and the product.

I used chrome pros and they chromed out rk custom wheels for my classic, polished down the rough cast smooth, and plated money well spent. Bought a set of rk custom wheels off of ebay to use as exchange for the chrome wheels the whole deal was about $900 did lower chrome legs and new rotors at the same time!

Chrome wheel exchange
I used Empress Plating in Ca. Wheels were grinded smooth then polished and chromed . They look great and come with a 5 year warranty. Got both wheels and front rotors for $800 including shipping and the bearings were already installed. Best deal I could find.
