Those are actually just painted .. and are a metallic silver rather then chrome. You can buy a "chrome" paint though and do them that way. A couple friends of mine have done that and it looks good.

Thanks Used to have the weld wheels logo on them, but I had those one's made to cover them since I had to have one of the center caps custom remade. They don't sell those wheels or center caps anymore, so I couldn't get the original weld wheels center for them.
