Can hp evos be chrome dipped?
The wheels looked polished on the lip,maybe clearcoated and the spokes look like some type of silver alloy,maybe clear coated too.I would like to chrome dip them when they start to pit or peel,Any guesses before i go to the chrome dip place.

Chromed? Are you driving an FD or a Bling-alade?
The best way to go would be to call up a chrome shop and ask them....
You should know that chroming weakens cast aluminum wheels....as an example, Vipers with the factory chromed wheels are usually not allowed to run at the track....and I've seen a Viper sheer through the OEM chrome wheels at a track event at 100+ mph. Not pretty.
