WTB: 2005-2010 Polished/Chrome wheels

**gpfarrell** · 01-29-2014, 10:00 PM

Trying to help a buddy. He found a nice '08 GT conv't that he's giving to his wife for Valentine's Day... But the wheels on it just ain't so good! 17's or 18's are fine, good tires and TPMS a real plus. Looking for Ford wheels... Sometimes called Premium, sometimes Chrome Bullitts. Price varies depending.... Thanks! Greg

Ron,

Thanks Buddy! Real close with the first link, but her favorite color is chrome!

Not Ford wheels, but I do have these for sale:

Wheels only, I only ended up using the tires when I bought them. PM me if interested.

Tempting... but really want to stick with FoMoCo stuff... even thoough those might look better! Thanks!

Got what I needed.

Actually bought a regular set of painted wheels and then got these:

14 day money back guarantee, but I'll keep them. I know chrome plated plastic sounds silly, but it's just what Lincoln did to the 20s on my Navigator. I don't expect these to last forever but for $90 I'll just buy another set... no sweat!

Thanks!

yuck

**gpfarrell** · 02-09-2014, 10:24 AM

Went9s... My initial reaction was the same, but don't knock them until you touch them. $1200 for chrome, $90 for these. On a 6 year old car for my buddy's wife. And I still have the strength of OEM wheels. Winner.

You should be ashamed to even post that you purchased those in this thread! Talk about being cheap!

**silvernotch** · 02-09-2014, 01:04 PM

what no spinners!!

**gpfarrell** · 02-09-2014, 02:24 PM

Double post.

**gpfarrell** · 02-09-2014, 02:26 PM

Triple post. Cheap i-pad!

**gpfarrell** · 02-09-2014, 02:28 PM

Yeah, I'm cheap and the wheels look like crap.

Its also 70 degrees and sunny in Pittsburgh today.

Wow, I'm a little dumb-founded at some of the superiority complexes around here.

I found an inexpensive product that I've found to be of remarkable quality. It substantially improves the appearance of the painted wheels for less than the sales tax on true chrome rims. I never said it was for everybody but i thought some folks might appreciate it.

I never realized I was surrounded by elites.

My humble apologies for offending your refined sense of taste and style.

May your next car be a Lexus.

Actually it will likely be a BMW
