Any fellow members have repeated problems with peeling chrome on top shelf wheels, for example HRE? Please share

I've never had chrome peeling problems with low end wheels, knock on wood!

Mine do (top shelf my butt) on my 2003 but ironically the knock off milleniums on my 2000 look great, just not as shinny.

Mine have peeled on the inside of the wheel. Almost all the chrome is gone. Never been in rain and only has about 5k on the wheels.

I bought a set of Y2K chrome wheels from WCC 9 years ago and they look new still.
