Since you said Airstrike, (as apposed to chromed SG wheels) are you aware there are several chrome exchange outfits on ebay that do exchanges for stock SG wheels?
***** Shiny
Chrome Pros
Impress Chrome plating
They all seem to have very good reviews, and most have warranties on the chrome which at least meet, or exceed what HD offers on the Airstrike (I believe its only a 1 year warranty from HD)
You pay a core charge, they send the chrome wheels, you send back your stock SG wheels and they refund the core charge. Assuming of course you have a SG to exchange the wheels. Looks to me to be cheaper in the long run than buying new from HD, and then trying to sell your stock wheels.

Thank you, Flyingace.
I am very satisfied with how it has turned out.
Was hoping not to "overchrome" it. I tried to keep some contrast with the black.
I elected to go with the Airstrikes because I thought they were very clean looking.
I wanted the bike to be a balance of black and chrome with a clean look. The Airstrikes seemed to fit the bill.
You would be surprised how many people don't realize that they are chromed SG wheels.

like those a lot.. just not sure if I want to go the exchange route or just buy new..?? To be honest, I really like the agitator chrome wheels, but I'm not sure I want to change tire size.
