All Chrome GTA 16in rim?
Hey,
Im thinking of restoring the rims on my T/A there 16in crosslaces. I was wondering what they would look like all chrome? What do you guys think?
Thanks!

crosslaces And lip being chrome?...I can't see it looking decent. the gta rims look 100% best as the stock goldish color, or black. w/polished lip.

Re: All Chrome GTA 16in rim?
imo dont see it working too well, too many spokes to keep clean, but maybe... anyone photoshop some? or just go and do it...

They look pretty cool dipped in chrome. Plus they're not very common like that. Go for it dude!
