i dont think so. i was debating on chroming my rims but they would weigh entirely too much if i did that. but they would look good for sure.

Not that flashy, but IMO a waste of your $$

I would worry about OEM wheels that have been stripped and chromed, especially off of ebay. If it's not done right it can discolor and flake easily. If you wanna do chrome your best bet is to buy a wheel that was designed to be chrome from the get go and not refinished.

does chroming a rim actually make it heavier?
