I think Mara can do it Tim, but I dunno how often he's around his shop anymore. He's off racing quads with his son all over the country.

I think HardcoreZ28 can powedercoat wheels. Dunno about the Chroming, but he probably has contacts through his business.

Yes, I also need my rims re-chromed. I have the 10-spoke Chrome SS SLP Rims, and SLP no longer sells them in Chrome. So if anyone knows a good place, please let me know. Also price if you can find out. Thanks

Had a friend in VA take my 16 chromes and he stripped them and painted them the same gold as other wheels.
I hated the mis match rims when I raced,plus it will look better for the GMHTP article.

That's gonna depend alot on the shop that you take them too. Widening a wheel ain't cheap...
