Looking to purchase some whels for my bike. Im looking for those nice flashy wheels. Some chrome wheels with style. I just have no clue what site or what brand their is for bike wheels. Any help?
Chrome is really heavy, especially when adding it to your wheels because when the added weight spins it really affects every aspect of the ride, from handling, stopping to cornering. but its your bike do what you want. Check out PM Wheels / RSD, RC Components or coastalmoto
In my town, some guys were operating a 'chrome exchange'. You give them your wheels and a sum of money, they give you chromed rims. If you have a custom bike painter or a sport bike club where you live they might be able to point you in the right direction.
Most chrome wheels are steel so they are already heavy +chrome heavier, polished aluminum looks excellent and is much lighter but requires constant buffing to maintain shine. If you want the chrome look on your aluminum wheels they first have to be zincated then the chrome will stick.expensive to have done. I personally like my steel rims painted easier to repair when they get chipped from replacing tyres. Painted wheels with stainless spokes yippee
