Anyone out there ever take off the chrome clad rim covers from the 20" rims? If so, how to the rims look? Pics???

Thanks

 

Sorry no pics, but they pretty much look like the standard aluminum 20 inch wheels on the express trucks once you get the glue off.
Such a shame they`re made in CHINA....!!!!!!!!!

 

So the rim covers are glued in place and made in China??? Hope to god that they never freaking break.

 

Yep, if you`ve got the 20 inch chrome clad wheels. (or should we say... aluminum tape covered wheels)
Yeah i hear ya on "made in china", i was p-i-s-s-e-d when i saw it embossed on the wheels on the backside of them.
Ther is a post somewhere in here where a guy took his clads off and painted the wheels black... looked really good...! I`ll post it if i find it.


Ok, here is what i found on another ram forum... the first picture is the chrome clad with the clad cover removed... you can see the epoxy still on it.
Being this was pulled from another forum, you might have to put this together to get there. I put a space between each "dot"
You might have to become a member to see the pics as well.

a guy i sold my old rims to said to take the plastic off and get them chromed, approx $50 a wheel

 

Sure would like to know where he`s getting them chromed THAT cheap...!
Me thinks the job they`re doing for $50 each must not be that good of quality.

 

Getting them "real" chrome would be great however, with the amount of work you have to do to get the covers off, I would be afraid of breaking them while trying to remove.

 

I'm having a set of 09 Laramie wheels powder coated black.

Here the requested pics

 

 

Very nice indeed.
