Message The reason I ask is that I picked up a set of chrome TT wheels (two rears, 7.5" fronts) with old tires. When I had the old tires removed, I noticed that one of the rears had fix-a-flat in it, and when the shop removed the tires, the chrome pulled off around the edge of the wheel due to the fix-a-flat, making a "rechrome" necessary if it is possible.

Any thoughts/ideas? i see these "wheel exchange" places all over the internet, but they all seem to want painted wheels (i.e. the stock/OEM silver, not the dealer option/aftermarked chrome ones).

Thanks in advance.
