Yes

Triple Plating- Copper, Nickel, Chrome. Your'e looking at $625.00 to $750.00. I checked a couple of places for chrome platting my C wheels. Im going to have them polished instead for $350.00. This way I can polish Wheels, rear end housing, Front and rear rotors, Counting the Zoop Seal I'll still have less than $500.00 in them all.

I changed my seating arrangement back to a one-up for winter storage here in WI., without all the bags, sissie-bar and shelf the rear wheel/fender really is visable again, I like the wheels just think the unit would look better with them chromed..alot better...GG you stated aprox.$650- $750, is that for ea. or both? anything else I should think about chroming as long as I'm taking the wheels off?

I'll have to remove the tires, obviously..do the wheel bearings need removal also? any other obsticles?

Wow, that's a answer! I'll give him a call only thing is I'd like my own wheels chromed so there's no trouble later if they're not straight..I'll take a look but it sounds like other items need the chrome too to make this project right...I'd like to keep it around a grand or so if possible.

thx

Watch out might be a grand today and another
you might want to polish the rotors and chrome the calipers

Chroming looks great on the wheels--just remember, if you polish out the wheels vs. chroming them, you can always buff out minor marring and scratches down the road. Chrome--won't be able to do that and only solution is to re-chrome. There is an exchange set on e-bay right now of chromed R/S wheels (might actually be Handler at Gateway-not sure). When I get around to it, I'm going to go the polishing route.

Try Busch Polishes Aluminum polish. Use it on the semi. Tried it on the 1300 wheels WOW!!!!! No need to chrome. I've used Mothers for years but this stuff blows Mothers away. Can get at truck stops about $13 a bottle.
