I have heard that if you chrome or refinish the wheels in any other way than stock, you will turn into a pimp, pussy,and /or a dealer that is according to the opinion experts on here..Also the motor may seize up.

Ya, I heard the same thing!
Anyhow, I just picked up a 2nd rear wheel for my 14 when I get my hands on another frt wheel I'm gonna do somethng to them. I'll post pics when I get it done. Chrome might work though. Fuck, I just hope my motor don't seize!LOL

I dunno about chrome vs. anything else. Going chrome means a matching swingarm that sticks out about 10 feet behind the bike in chrome of course, and a 300 rear tire. I can't stand bling bikes. But If you're into that type thing no need to waste your own time, get everything here:

Be very careful man. ( I posted some b4 and after pics of the now chromed stock wheels, under the "stripping the wheels on a 14" topic if you wanna take a look.) Now that they are chrome the engine has started to knock.

Is that what going chrome means? All or nothing right? I think it cleaned the bike up . Looks good for the black, matches the emblems no? No chrome swing arm needed.

We don't HATE chrome wheels...see how this shit gets all blown out of proportion? This started cuz of CounterFuck and his remarks about me being cheap and polishing instead of chroming...you have to read the entire thread where that started to understand what really transpired. This is how world wars start...he said, she said etc... FYI...my HOG is just one big fat piece of chrome...
Dude, this is Bikeland.org, and this is what happens here...it's all good too! When things get really nasty, they move it to the Smackhouse

Ok, I give up. I have tried posting a pic of chrome rims on my bike but coming from BBG they don't post up. It could be because I can't find the bb code [Img] to click on to load the pic?

Yeah I know - looks cool but it's really soft and even more prone to chipping.
Gloss black powdercoat - that's the new chrome.
