Black 10 spoke wheels - Chrome dipped

Last month I finally got my black 10 spoke wheels chromed dipped. I actually purchased a second set of wheels. I have one set that are still black with the winter tires on them and the stock tires are on the chrome wheels. Guess you can say I have winter and other season wheels.

I'll have to get you the name of the place, Chapel Hill Chevy dealer actually helped me out. The sales manager there helped me get them dipped through a place in Raleigh.
Took about 25 days from pickup to delivery, took another day to swap them out.

I totally agree! Those chromed rims would look good on any of the darker ZL1 colors, but really go well with your BRM.

Not really liking the ribbed look showing when your convertible top is up, though. What's up with that?

I am a big fan of this wheel. I really like the idea of a polished ssx wheel. If I am fortunate to land a zl1 I believe that I will go this route.

Good choice of getting a second set of wheels. I would never alter my original equipment.

Hmmm...are you saying its not supposed to be that way or just commenting on how it looks?
If its not supposed to be that way, then I need to get that fixed. Let me know if its not supposed to be that way. Appreciate the feedback.

The chrome looks WAY better on your color car than the black wheels. Man, that looks good!

The car looks good with them on! I have to ask was the picture with chrome wheels taken mid-day and the picture with the black wheels early morning?
