I read someplace that the 95 Fleetwood(93-96?) came with factory optional chome wheels. Are they the same design as the stock? Do they look good? If so, are they hard to find?
Thanks in advance.

I've owned both, chrome and non chrome. And even had both on the same car, non-chrome front, chrome back. If you didn't know, they basically look the same. In fact, it's hard to tell the chrome from the non-chrome. It's a bugger to clean the chrome ones. While they both look the same, the chrome ones are chromed all the way through the pattern and the non-chromed ones aren't - they're blacked out in the back or negative space of the pattern. So you have to "clean" the chrome ones in that back or negative space and without a toothbrush and hours on end you're in for a bugger for a time. And with the non-chrome ones, you just wash the front. Easy. And they almost look the same. I mean, who could tell. They're very bright to their own merit. theGman 05-25-04, 05:36 PM Good point. Never thought of that. FASSTWOOD 05-25-04, 10:23 PM Gman maybe you could polish your wheels to a almost chrome finish. The way the guys do it with the impala wheels... check this write up (http://www.impalasuperstore.com/naisso/forum2002/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=20868) Have fun if you decied to accept this mission... | |
