Yup. Original 85-87 wheels here. Just remember, the polish job before the plating will make or break the finished look. Make sure they do a real good polish job, especially in the corners, if you have yours done.

mine are 91 z28 rims ........i just posted it so you can clearly see that a rim with chrome is beautiful when it's done right!

I like chrome iroc rims.......but, to me they don't belong on a 91. so i did mine that way.

Thanks guys..
I´m not sure if I should blast them before i send them away ...or just remove the paint.. though I have already spent one can off stripper on 1 rim and it is still not done yet
These guys are painting cromed http://www.silverfinish.nu I think I´m sending my rims to them.
