I got them from wheelselections (link below). Talk to the guy named Mike (there’s another salesman there as well….you can talk to him to). Just mention that Michael from Albuquerque referred you...that's all I ask (I have no affiliation with them….I just found them on an internet search….glad I did!) They're MUCH cheaper than I found anywhere....they were fast....came mounted, balanced, shipped to my door and they weren't scuffed up…not to mention they were great to deal with.

I got the Nankang NS2 tires (they've been around for a long time....actually...they're much better than the stock tires). 19x9.5 all the way around with 275/30ZR19 tires all the way around.
I read reviews online for the Nankang NS2 tires…..all good….none bad….so I decided to go with them since they were such a great deal. I haven’t had a ton of driving with them yet…..but I can tell you they ride MUCH better than the stock ones. They don’t yank the steering wheel hard when you hit groves. The grip is pretty decent on them….don’t expect street e/t’s. Overall….they’re much better than the stock Eagle F1’s in every way (I don’t know about treadware yet….but I’ve read mixed reports on this).
As for price…..give them a call for a quote. Shipping will obviously vary….and sometimes the prices on tires vary a little. Trust me though…..if you’re looking to buy these rims (they have them in all the colors) and other types of rims (they carry the Ruff Racing rims to)….check them out! I was floored at the price (I’d been searching to buy these rims for weeks).

To answer your question.....I called them and double checked.....
YES.....they do come in CHROME.....for our cars!!! (this might change people's minds because I know people have been wanting them in Chrome).
I'd like to see a chrome set on a car.
