Where in the "left coast" did you do this.....J

Flip's Tire Center, 7745 Sepulveda Blvd., Van Nuys, CA 818.786.8686. Paid $150.00 per wheel for a total with tax of $650.00 OOD. Ask for Chris and tell him Brad sent you - he's a good guy.

I did the chrome exchange with my stock 18" sport rims. I thought I'd share them with you, forgive the quality of the pics they came out pretty bad, the rims look much better in person! I had to take them in the garage - it's raining outside now but I will get more pics in the sun. I think they go great with the dark Monaco Blue color and look much better than the stock silver paint. They tie in the grill, headlight tailight housings and exhaust pipes just right.

Lookin' good Hotlap! I love my 124s too but I plan to leave them "satin". I've got chrome rims on my truck and keeping them polished is too much work. I'm a busy guy!

Whether you love or hate chrome wheels, it is a personal call. I think the 124's look fine in chrome. The negative side is additional unsprung weight.

OT, how do you like the Shelby 500?
