    Contact them, they will powder coat anything and it's not your average joe at doing so. They've done a few valve covers for my buddy.

    but remember, Cail is the only place that can chrome rims in the 50 states.

    I know you got boned on GCP, and i think the wheels would look great chromes

    Actually it's not "chromed" anymore, alot of wheel companies are using the same process that Edelbrock usings to coat their intakes. Check out a company called "Goodrich Technologies", they are/were the leaders of the process.

    Here's their website..
    PermaStar Chrome - Home Page

    If you want the wheels fixed and retain the stock look, try these guys. Weldcraft Wheels Wheel Widening Wheel Repairs Wheel Restoration when you clink on the link the first picture is a widened wheel, that's mine. It was originally an 18x8, they inserted a band, made it a 18x15, when balancing, it only took a 1/4 ounce of weight, these guys know their stuff.

    Is the place called "stockton wheels"? I vaguely remember a place that also repaired wheels. When I called American Racing wheel to have a set modified, they told me to call them. (A few years ago though) - I'm getting old so my memory may be fading.

    The place is called stocken wheel company. Im going to wait till i get some money from the sell of the tires that are on them and the sell of some PEMs and a zzp #in cat'd dp i'll hae up for sell soon to get them done, because other than that im a little short, but hell if slp and american racing recommend these guys they must be good.
