Who's the happiest with their chromed wheels?

I'm about to get my wheels chromed; but I'm still not sure who to send them to. I'm leaning toward Wheel Creations because they do a 5 layer plating process versus 3. They also offer a 4 year warranty compared most places' 1 year. I know that most that have used Santa Anna Wheels have had some degree of dissatisfaction. I'd like to hear from people that have been completely pleased.

Thanks,
Edward

I thought about getting my factory wheels chromed but I ended up coming out better by selling my factory wheels and just ordering new wheels. The wheels in my sig retail for $1,200 and I only have $500.00 in them. You probably would be better off just to buy new ones and sell your factory ones.

I agree, I bought chrome wheels from FRPP for $1180 and sold my stock ones... Excellent quality, not repops. Brand new from Ford......

I would have liked to by OEM wheels; but I want '01/'02 style wheels. Thanks for the input. Keep it coming.

I loved my '01 chromed rims. Made the whole truck look sweet. I got them chromed by Discount Tires. Too bad I'm selling them now because I got a set of Harley wheels from a friend of mine. You interested in a set of 4 chromed '01 wheels that are in perfect condition with almost new Toyo Proxies. They are only 3 months old with only 3K miles on them.

I just bought my 20" Chrome Replicas, they are super nice, got a GREAT deal. Only spent 1200 bucks. I can't wait to get tires so I can put the wheels on the L.

Where did you get your wheels for such a great price? Just curious because I am going to get some chrome 01/02 20" reps for my 03 that I am about to order.
