Chrome stock wheels

I have a 2010 2SS/RS and am looking for new rims. I want chrome wheels but have be unable to find ones I like. Doesn't appear there is a big desire for chrome anymore. I was wondering if anyone has had the 20" OEM wheels for the SS chromed? Is it possible and if so, how did it turn out? TIA

To chrome the stockers I was told by a chrome shop here in Melb would cost more than buying a new aftermarket set. I went polished with mine and the look great. M228's. If you want the "stock" look check out Tirerack.com, they have them in the "polished" finish.

I have the Factory Reproductions version of the ZL1 wheel in chrome.

You should see if they are still making those, they look great.

Thanks for all the help. I have the polished aluminum wheels, and agree that polished looks good, IMO they just don't shine like chrome. I did see the Factory Reproduction ZL1 wheels and contacted them a couple of months ago and they do not make them in chrome anymore. There are some available on Ebay, so I guess that is an option. I will reach out to a couple of chroming places here in Tampa and see what they say.
