  • "Polished" Rims?

    First I was wondering if a "polished" rim is the same as a chrome rim? Below is a picture the guy sent me of the rims I'm thinking about buying. They look like chrome to me! Any thoughts are appreciated greatly!

    The "polished" rims I know of are polished aluminum type rims that are highly polished so that they shine like chrome yet are less expensive.

      I heard polished rims are a biatch to keep clean, they get water spots real easily too... from what I hear that is.

          DOn't get polished. PITA! I had polished on my first car. They look good and like chrome for about 6 months then they get faded looking and get splotchy. They are alot fo work. You won't regret paying extra and get the chrome!

          -Those Iroc wheels would look nice on our 4th Gen Fbodies. I havne't seem many but if you get em, post some pics!
