Chrome SRT wheels installed / Pics inside!!

Wow. All I can say is they look 1000% better than my camera can capture. The car seems like new again. The car says "look at me". Unfortunately, the rain is moving in again so the "before" picture is with the sun out and the after it is cloudy. But, they are still shining!!

BEFORE:




AFTER (YUMMY)


My normal parking spot in the boondocks when going to the store!!

Congratulations those wheels look spectacular. I would love to do something like that one day. It really sets your ride off….especially parked in the boondocks!

The rear of the wheels were OK, but not as good as the face. The chrome appeared to be "thinner" than the face. Also I weighed them without tires the chrome ones were within a 1/2 pound of the stock ones. My memory is not what it use to be but I could have sworn the chrome wheels were 28.4 lbs. All of the polished stock ones weighed in at 28.6 lbs. The chrome ones might have been 29.4, I can't remember now. Either way about .8 lbs each is nothing to worry about. This was on an unofficial scale of course.

They look great, Dennis!

I weighed my wheels both un-chromed and chromed. There is about a 2.8 pound difference per wheel...chrome being heavier. I'd have to go back in my thread for the exact numbers. But I had them weighed on a calibrated UPS scale.

Now all you need is the Proxe 275/45/20's and you will be in heaven!
