Hello i was check out the new 08-10 chrome stock 20's to put on my truck so i acutually purchased the stock 20" non chrome and someone told me the chrome ones are not real chrome there caps. And i can buy them and glue them on top of the rim? Any ideas

yea Im sure they are the same as all the others, just a glue on cladding. I dont know if you can buy them from the dealer or not. Im sure itd be cheaper to just get them powdercoated or to buy a set of aftermarket rims though

Anybody ever tried to paint the wheel and remove the covers in case you want to go back to chrome? It'd be sweet to go black and then come back...

once you go black, you NEVER come back...lol you cant do it that way, the covers are not just like a snap on piece...I think everyone that takes em off ends up halfway breaking them and the glue is rediculously hard. I sold my chrome ones and it not only paid for the new rims and powdercoating, i ended up with a profitOriginally Posted by 08arhemi

fact...as good of a market as there would be for the clad caps, nobody does it. I think you would be a millionaire if you made chrome clad caps for stock rims for every makerOriginally Posted by cmzracing
i called the dealer and the clad caps are not available seperate. must buy whole wheel

Hey Dude send me a PM then. I have an 08 with the chrome clad 20's in mint condition. Um I actually want the set that you have I'd prefer the non clad because I can have them powder coated black so I mean if you arn't ridiculously far away I'd be willing to consider a trade so just PM if interested
nvm just saw OP posted this five months ago... damn haha
