Default Gp Ccw?????

I have been following a steady interest in Forum members wishing to purchase CCW wheels and tire combo. With the many Forum Vendors isn't there one who would be willing to step up to the plate with a special deal. I know WCC has good prices but maybe they can come up with a better one. I personaly would be interested in a set of 19" Chrome CCW with sensors and tires.

I put forth the challange Give us a Special Deal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For your information Complete Custom Wheels CCW will sell directly to you at the exact same price they sell to other vendors. Hence, no need to ask for a GP price. Now if you want them chromed you will have to set that up with another vendor as CCW does not chrome.

I am looking to buy, but I'm confused. This post shows them chromed, but after all the posts, I still don't know where he got them.

There is a link to CalChrome in the post. When you click on the 505A, it shoots you to the CCW website and they don't sell them chromed.
UMMM...????

John will not chrome any wheels. I begged for months, he said to many problems. But he will be happy to sell you some polished ones or let you get them chromed. So before you slam me, call and ask John

Hi Guys -

FWIW - When I spoke to John , he was not doing chrome but he said he could ship the, to the plater of your choice.

I am sending my 505a's to calchrome this winter to have them chromed.

best regards -

CalChrome will buy the wheels (once you have paid, of course), have them shipped to their shop, chrome them, perform any other services you may want (such as tire and sensor mounting), and then ship them to you. It's the easiest and probably cheapest way to buy chrome CCWs.

I'm still confused. If CCW won't chrome wheels because of problems, why would someone else chrome them after knowingly having them shipped directly from CCW to them for chroming?
This is starting to sound like...."who's on first?" , but none of this makes any sense.
These wheels cost a friggin' fortune and a lot of people want them. The CCW website is all but useless, unless you want to see a picture of a wheel you want, but can't buy.

How about, to ease your confusion, you just call CCW -

If they drop the price to $1500, they'll sell a hell of a lot more.

Maybe GM should sell 2007 ZO6s for $40K. They'd sell a hell of a lot more.
