Default My chrome Z06 wheels are peeling off...

What are my other options other than re-chrome and expect it to peel again down the road?

Is it hard/expensive to get the chrome off of these wheels and paint or powdercoat the set?

I think I've outgrown the chrome look wheels... I think it's time to powdercoat it.

best shot is to go to a good powdercoater, who would use an etching agent. Chrome can come off but ou don't want that bill.

Go to Motomotion.com or uswheelexchange.com ; both places have a finish that is warrantied and will not rust, chip, peal or flake off and it has the same exact finish as chrome!

Neither place will refinish chromed rims.
