Hmmmmmmmm? Possibly, and I found out the exact shop:

Wheel Concepts
Newbury Park, CA 91320
(805) 376-2113

This is where my dealer sends all their wheels to be done.

Txstyle Just got his rims done there. The price for Triple Chrome plating a 19 inch rim is $105 per rim.

18" Chrome Plating is $95.

Single Coat chrome is only $55 but who knows what kind of quality that is.

Default TX Style Wheels

I am very interested in the rims you just posted(Kahn RSR's). You have the exact same taste when it comes to wheels!!!!!!! I like something sneaky. Ride up quietly and then they scream when they stop. Very phat look for the GS. Let em know who i need to be talking to and the pricing. How much to chrome them? I amy just leave them the way they are!!!!!!!!!! Good looking out. (That means Thank you)

Here are the KAHN RSR's If you interested let me know and I'll put you in touch with the only importer here in the states.

TXSTYLE,

I have a couple of questions for u if you dont mind.

How much turnaroud time did Wheel Concepts take to chrome your rims?

Did you go thru a local dealer or dealt with them directly?

What was your total cost for all 4 rims?

Thanks,

Getting a little "personal" there GS4fun.
The turnaround time was 3 weeks. Pricing was dealers cost. Unfortunately that is pretty confidential. Considering I deal with my dealership (parts imparticular) on a regular basis and that they read this site often (I know, I told them about it) I can't quote their costs, you understand. I will say however that based on the numbers enginyr is getting/posting here, that is a very good price! And I personally never spoke with Wheel Concepts. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the info. I understand your business relationship. I think 105 a rim is a very good price too.

I'm wondering if I send them 2 rims versus 4 would they beat the 3 weeks delivery ? You know once I put my stock 16's back, the car is going to look like a SUV with huge wheel well GAPS.

All right Manuel! I'm sure he was referring to more profile pics of my car. I was planning to take some this weekend, but the clouds have moved in and we're going to have rain all weekend.
Oh well, there's always next week!
