christianR-- I don't think the chrome finish wheels would last long
over here and some dealers won't even give it a warranty and the ones that do only give it 3 months. One guy had a set of chrome antera's on his audi A3 they lasted 1 month before the chrome started turning goldish colour before black. Other wheels like the seneka racings which my girlfriend has on her polo the polished lip
started to corrode after 8 months now the wheels are minging, I'll
end up getting them powder coated then punt them.
I think wolfrace sell a wheel called enigma's which has a black chrome finish, they claim it will last in the british weather but
the advert's been changed and I don't think it states that no more.
I have just got a set of vortex wheels 18's with the hyper black
finish it looks almost anthracite in the dark but as soom as light hits it , it shines.
Any way hope this reply helps .
