Default How long have you had your chrome...

wheels? I had mine for about a year before the salt got to them. I would have taken them off a lot sooner, but I had no prior experience with snow and salt, so I didn't know any better. I'm just wondering how long they will last somewhere that doesn't get snow.

I bought my chrome 10 spoke SS wheels brand new from SLP.

They have been on a car that has not been daily driven, only on nice
days as a hobby car. Within 8 months the clear coat peeled off the
center caps and the chrome was peeling of the inside of all the wheels.
I can only emagine how bad they would be if the car was daily driven.

SLP does not warrenty the inside of the wheels, that was the biggest
waist of money yet.
