Title: Pro Class Rims Question
Post by: Brandy Truffle on November 05, 2007, 04:44 PM
I've been trying to source some for a build but i have a question for the Gooseheads...

Did they come in actual "Chrome" or "Silver Anodised" or was it both?

Some rims i see definately look chrome, others just highly polished,but i'm not sure if thats just because of age...

Cheers in advance  :daumenhoch:

 Prosteel which where chromed steel with the holes
 Then Proclass annodized ally with the holes
 Then proclass 2 which where chromed ally with the holes
 Then Proclass 3 which where hard annod.

You can always make your own by getting some araya 7x's and drilling them out. i did for my cruiser.
