NYC Wheel Chroming

Hey guys I was wondering if anyone knew of a good and reasonably priced place in the NYC area to get some stock 17's chromed. I'm picking up a pair of GS rims and want to get them dipped. If anyone knows it would be appreciated if you could share that info with me. Thanks!

Cliff is right...

To chrome a wheel its going to run you about $200+ a wheel. Your better off buying a set from the classifieds or go bigger like 19's

If it's not an emergency, be patient and they'll be on the classified before you know it. As soon as you stop looking for them, they'll show up
