Jamroll:
I have a set of Chrome Araya 7x Rims lased with Chrome Spokes and Polished Hubs  :smitten:
Now they will be going on a Carpet Queen but may be tempted to take out to london for the annual gathering if weather permits  ::)

Is there anything i can do to protect the rims from blistering / wearing through the chromefrom brake rub?

Cheers Al.

Yeah I was hoping to avoid that way of stoppin  ;D
Could I get the laqured or anything?

trasher:
those tuff pad look alikes ,,,ware down like fook

i used them on one of the london rides ,,and there was black dust everywere

i reckon if you use them they will ware down rather than damaging your rims , as there prety soft  :-\

A coaster hub would work but you've had the wheels built now.   ::)  You could always fit a cheap pair of wheels to the bike for the day or risk scarring the rims which is pretty inevitable really...
