Don't do it...I ordered my HRE's clearcoated and they were cool for about a year, but any little chip in the clear and they go down hill quck...I am getting them chromed ASAP...

Chrome is the way to go! Polished aluminum require too much work to keep them looking nice.

what is the typical chroming price?

 

[Snake Bitten]

Call www.calchrome.com and have them send you some boxes, I'd say it will cost $900 plus shipping both ways...the boxes should be free...I wouldn't let anyone else touch my wheels...

No clear coat or chrome...just give then a polish every year.

I had Purner wheels for about 3 yrs. Despite no clearcoat, these wheels looked great after years of use. As noted above, just use a good aluminimu polish and they should look great for years. Chrome looks great but they are heavier and can be a pain once it starts pitting.
