So I noticed a while back that the "chrome" is actually like a plastic cover over the face of the wheel. does anyone know what the actual wheel underneath looks like?

im referring to the 20's that come on the 06-08 1500's

Yeah they are CLAD wheels...under neath they should be black or grey steel I believe...

you can also go to finishline wheel and get an actual chrome wheel, but even he wants $500 a wheel...which is the same price he asks for his SRT wheels

they look like ass without the cover on them.

I'll find a pic here soon, I've seen it before........

If you don't like the CCs, trade for someone that has the painted ones - if you take off the cover there is a big gap under it......well, refer to line 1 in this post. :D

i don't think so.........look at the hub, too much "room" missing there and then on the flat part of the spoke - looks like indentions........lame.

I think I saw a pic where someone did that and painted it black. Still looked like ***.

Somethings shouldn't be seen without being properly covered.

yea I was seriously contemplating removing the chrome cladding on mine to get powdercoated but ended up selling the chrome ones and buying some aluminum 20s, and still came out ahead after the cost of the new rims and coating.

If you are wanting to paint them or something, do that. They are worth $600-$800
