<Go down there and low and behold, the chrome was flaking on> <the inside barrel and they missed spots between the spokes.>

What a surprize you mean someone was supposed to do a job and they didn't complete it like they were paid to - NO WAY THAT DOESN'T HAPPEN - story of my life ...

Now see - this is what we need portable Terry Tates for - you bring Terry down to the plater and introduce him to the plating crew ... YA' BaBy ...

Just got done talking to the dude at Santa Ana Wheels. He is quite proud of shipping out Lighnting wheels all over the USA and is only about 20 mins from me. He also mentioned F150online, which i thought was quite cool.At any rate, he says most likely my wheels are ruined due to how many times they have been stripped and plated ( 14 times ). One dent on the lip and a nice gouge on the spoke. He wants to see them he can even accept them as a core.

Yes they would get very dirty but im willing to break them off weekly, clean and wax them. If i cannot afford spanks, im surely going to have the same quality chrome as them.

Santa Anna missed a spot on one of the outside spokes of my 2001 wheels when I sent them there. I didn't catch it until I already had the tires mounted.
