Road King laced wheels

Are the laced wheels on the RK chrome or polished aluminum? I've looked around and can't find it. I believe they're chrome(plated). Thanks.

The wheel is chrome...the spokes are not.

Are you sure about those spokes?......Yes, I know HD used cadmium plated spokes for decades. I have two bikes with battleship gray spokes....However, in 2005, if I got my date correct, HD started putting chrome spokeson some, if not all models.

My 07 RKC has chrome wheels AND spokes. If those spokes aren't chrome, it's the best polish job on metal I've ever seen (their chrome).
