Default widening and re-chroming

Anyone know a ballpark estimate of what it would cost to widen my rear wheels an inch and get all four re-chromed?

I have 9.5 in C6 wheels. I had to drive my car in the winter and the salt ate away the chrome in the corners of the wheels to the point that now it is flaking off.

Last place we checked with was about $200 per wheel to widen it.

From what I have seen, your probably looking at $400-500 per wheel for both the widening and chroming....then add shipping to it.
