I finally got my new rims and am about as giddy as a schoolgirl..... got a few months before I put rubber on them but that just gives me time to polish the heck out of them. One has a little bit of peeling around the center cap but that will be fix straight off.

200 Dollars for 4 17 inch Chrome rims (hence the giddy)

those few months are gonna kill you.

I always wanted to upgrade to those wheels when I had my other 95, but I heard about how corrosive they are. Good luck with those.

I'm with Haro, good luck with them. They look sweet now but I have seen numerous pics of those rims losing all of their chrome. Take good care of them!

I am going to take good care. Two are in Mint condition, one has some of the coating on the back of the rim coming off, and another has slight flaking around the center cap. The flaking is all still there and has been sealed with acrylic. hard to tell anything is wrong. I am going to polish the H*ll out of these rims
