Default Chroming A Polished Wheel

-JUST WONDERING IF THERE ARE ANY FITMENT ISSUES AFTER A POLISHED WHEEL HAS BEEN CHROMED (LUG HOLES AND SUCH)
-ANY IDEA WHAT IT WOULD COST FOR A QUALITY CHROME JOB ON 4 19X10 WHEELS
-HOW THICK IS CHROME?
-CCW 505As ARE MY FAVORITE WHEELS FOR THE WS6 BUT I DONT WANT A POLISHED WHEEL
-I HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT CONTACTING CCW ABOUT IT BUT I WANTED TO WAIT UNTIL I WAS CLOSER TO BUYING

THANKS FOR ANY INFO

hopefully MeentSS02 will see this thread, as he was going to or has looked into having his CCW's chromed. He may be able to help you out with some of your questions.

Unfortunately, my cracked valence has put this on hold for a while...plus my newly bubbled sail panel. Looks like I'll be polishing these wheels for at least another year...unless someone wants to sell a new CME valence for something less than $650 Greedy bastards...
