Yes, that is the Zone 3 model.
Chrome is a standard finish option on the Zone wheels! Thanks for asking!

They are US-made forged, three-piece wheels, and can be had in custom widths and offsets in 19", 20", and 22" diameters..

Standard center finishes include:
-Brushed/ceramic clearcoat
-Chrome
-Black powdercoat
-Liquid Silver powdercoat
-Anthracite powdercoat
-Polish/Ceramic clearcoat

The outer lip comes chrome as standard, or high-polish is a no-cost option.

I am not sure how the price comapares specifically to the Work wheels, but the Zone are forged
and the Work utilize cast centers. Zone's standard finishes and quick build-time give a
significant advantage when comparing these to other brands of three-piece wheels.

Henry,

Silver powdercoat is also a standard finish, as is brushed or black - All are same price. Time frame has been consistenly around 2 weeks, which is great stuff to hear as a vendor

just my opinion but when i look at that wheel it just doesnt do it for me, i cant put my finger on it but its as if the spoke is not defined, the center design is just too smooth, looks like a flower or somethin, i would like it better with a tapering spoke with a more squared off edge,,,,,,,im having a hard time putting it into words but maybe somebody will understand

wow peter, i can't believe you still remmeber my name!!!!

2 weeks turn around time is insanely fast, considering that those are all custom made. they work really fast! and it's good to know that they do silver powdercoat. if i am right the finish is stronger than normal paint right?

I know what you are talking about.. You mean the center piece should be thicker/larger or something like that to even out the entire wheel? I can't really explain it but I know what you mean. Still a very nice wheel.

Ooops... sorry about that!
Last time I spoke with Ethan I was under the impression that he worked something out with Peter.
Zone has focused on targeting a very specific and select group of dealers...
I will refrain from referring CL members to any specific dealer.

Don't know about any of that- the wheel looks well-proportioned in real life. This style has mostly been popular with the Mercedes/BMW crowd so far. They're sort of a modern interpretation of a hot-rod wheel, a unique take on a 5-spoke wheel. They are insane on the new Mustang! Wait until the 22" version is done!!!!!

I can't stop and get gas without someone complimenting me on the wheels, so can't be all bad...
