Default chrome wheels
Searched but didn't find what I was looking for. I need some advise or direction to locate some companies that either do exchanges or sell out right new rims for a 99 RK. Im looking to to oversize the front rim and change out the rear, and be chrome, and maybe come with new tires or not, and maybe new bearings or not. Just looking for a full service shop I can ship too that has a good rep from you guys... ANy help is appreciated.

These guys did a great job for me. Only "problem" was that the plating is very thick and it took a lot of filing to fit the 3 brake rotors and the rear pulley. The plating quality was excellent, as was turn around time.

Check the wheel swaps on ebay. Plety of competant chromers there. I got mine from some palce in Chula Vista if I remember correctly. Just search for RK wheels and you'll find everything you need.
