08 Split Spoke Wheels in CHROME!
I've been wondering how the new split spoke wheels would look chromed.
Found some on egay, search words: 08 corvette wheels

I like the look. I have to admit I wasn't a big fan of the wheels but after seeing some members post up some of their pics, and now these chromed version, they are really growing on me.

They look better than the standard split spokes but I still prefer the old style.

i know a little bit about wheels and I believe those are black chrome wheels not regular chrome, unless it is the environment around them that give them that look in the pic.

I just email WCC to see what their plans are for a chrome exchange on these wheels.

These wheels were kinda growing on me in the polished version, but IMO, they really look outstanding in Chrome
Thanks for the pic
