Hey all...
Has anyone of you ever fixed a peeled-off chrome lip of your wheels?
The chrome lip on my wheels are peeling off .. more and more. This is chrome, not high-polished so it peels off rather easily.

One solution that I have so far is to get someone to peel the whole thing off and then high-polish it. But unfortunately, one of the best wheel shops in my area has refused to do it because he can't guarantee that the result would be good.

So.. if you guys know anything about this, please share!! Appreciate it guys, thanks!

when chrome is peeled off from the wheel therse nothing you can you. Most manufactures have 1 year warrenty on chromes so if it is not that old contact where you bought. Or you have to re dip wheels. I dont recommand high polish it . It wont be as same as others. It will not have that chrome effect.

Either get them redip them from chrome shop or peel all chromes off and paint them.

yea re-dipping them would be another option but the chrome won't be as nice as before tho, might look tacky.. but if it's the best option i might end up doin it .. or painting the lip the maybe..

isnt Lowenhart a good brand? i mean why would they peel after only one year?? maybe environmental factors? cleaners?

call them and see how there warranty runs on things like that, I had the chrome peeling off one of the lips on my dads HRE's sent it over to HRE they replaced it free of charge and covered shipping both ways as well.

if the lip is high-polished and not chrome, u shd be fine man. but american chrome might be better than japanese one..
