I still have to get my current tires mounted on them, but I got a KILLER deal on them off ebay. Guy lives about an hour away and met me halfway so I didn't have to pay shipping. So I got the wheels with almost brand new tires for 175!! Now I gotta wait till the first friday of sept to get them switched over but here's a sneak peak and a PS of what it should look like. Let me know what you think!!
The begining:
Checking out to see how it would look before I get the tires switched over:
And the PS I did. I used the actual wheel I put on for the PS to get a more relistic look:
Again let me know what you think!

Yes it has the pony in the center cap. I wasn't expecting a lot of people to like it, but I was ready for something different and I got a killer deal on it and I can turn around and sell the tires off the wheels and make my money back and I could a avoid shipping. So it'll work for now.

Thats the plan. they need to be refinished so once I find a place that does it and I get a price and get the money together it'll happen.

i dont know if i would trust locals to chrome plate my rims... ive seen alot of local jobs that are crap in a bag... they chip and fall apart and look like crap. for the money you can just buy them oem chrome... sell those and make a little money.

if anything, have them powerdercoated or something
as Brandon said, chrome has a tendancy to flake, especially on wheels that arnt OEM chrome, but were chromes
chrome sticks better to a fresh surface, you can acid dip wheels all you want, but the surface will never be like it was when it was new |

I'm half and half on it, but with the good deal I got its something different for a while and i'm planning to sell the tires off them and they are almost brand new and I should be able to make the 175 back on them.

Yeah I honestly didn't expect many people to like it lol, but I really dont care. I like it and i'll keep it for a while. To be honest tho come friday my truck will barely be driven. Gas is to expensive and i got me a gas saver/new DD which i'm about to post up.
