OK...., let me try this again. Not sure about the lurker comment. Joined a couple of years ago but due to a family emergency had to sell my first Z within weeks of getting it. Getting my second this week. Do any of you out there know of any suppliers you've used for NEW chromed stock wheels? Meaning are there any people who either sell new chromed OEM type wheels or you supply them your stock wheels and they chrome them and return that any of you have used and can recommend. I've seen pics of them on this forum. Thx.

My question is this: Are you sure you really want to deal with chrome wheels? I've read that they don't hold up well after years of exposure to harsh weather conditions.

With that being said, you should peruse the classifieds section on this site or find a local wheel repair shop who can better answer your questions.
