so, what rims did you get?

Buellwinkle · 02-11-2003, 10:09 AM

I got the C7 rims, it's what I've been wanting for a while.

tommy · 02-11-2003, 10:53 AM

So, tell us again why you didn't get the C7 package?

Buellwinkle · 02-11-2003, 10:56 AM

Mine was one of the first to come to the dealer and there was no C7 package at that time.

How much of a difference did you notice weight wise when you had them dipped? Can you post a "on car" pic

I didn't weigh them before and after so I have no idea. Lucas at tirerack can probably give you weight differences between a painted and chromed 16" wheel.

how much do you think it would cost to have the c7 wheels dipped?

Buellwinkle · 02-11-2003, 05:12 PM

You can probably get the wheels chromed for $400 but then you would be without wheels for a while. Also you would have to demount and remount them so you have costs there. So if you can afford to be without your wheels for a while you can probably get it done for $500 including labor/tax.

Did u sell the tires already?

I need a set of rims/tires for the winter months, i know chrome isnt good for that salt, but that seeems like a great deal there.

There yours if you want them. Don't know much about salt effects, maybe a light coating of wax may help. E-mail or PM me and we'll work out details.
