I am trying to find pics of an Armada with the SE 5 spoke wheels in chrome. I normally run chrome 20s but Winter is coming and I am considering either the SE 5 spokes in chrome or charcoal. I have seen the charcoal 5 spokes and they look good but would like to see the chrome 5 spokes installed on an Armada. All I can find is the plain wheel pics on ebay. I have the factory 6 spoke LEs but do not care for that look in the silver or the chrome. No offense to anyone. I already posted in buy/sell/trade but if anyone wants to trade silver 6 spoke for charcoal 5 spoke let me know.
Anyone have their wheels chromed?

I wouldn't get chrome. They are chewed up by road salt almost overnight. If you are going for a winter tire, get normal finish. If you want a chromish finish, find someone who will polish and clearcoat the stock wheels. Not quite as bright as chrome, but they won't pit easily and will withstand salt.

I agree. Most aftermarket chrome jobs suck. It's just too hard to find a quality chromer. The minute you hit any corrosive element, the wheels pit and look like crap.92TripleBlack said:I wouldn't get chrome. They are chewed up by road salt almost overnight.
