What are some of the higher quality chrome wheels? I was excited about BMF's, but looking into it more there is ALOT of negative feedback on their chrome wheels.

I love my welds weren't cheap but they have stood up great. I think they have sold or changed owership since I bought mine so might have some quality issues not sure.

I surprised your weld wheels have held up, how many miles do you have on them? When I bought my truck it had a set of Weld Cheyenne's, and two spokes were broke on one wheel, and one was broke on another.....When Weld made these kind of rims, they were under ownership of American Racing......I called, and complained enough, and had a new set of Dale Jr. Black Cannon's in a few weeks for free....Now just to get some good rubber for em.

I have about 45k on them, but i do take good care of them. This last year has been pretty hard on them with the winter. When I got mine it was before am. racing bought them. It was still under the weld line (from what i was told). Not sure if quality changed.

Glad they took care of you.

I had Welds on my last truck and was happy with them, but they don't make truck wheels anymore.

Ion forged has some really good looking wheels, but the 20's have alot of offset -25.

I've had my chrome Rockstars by KMC for about a year, and they look as good as the first day I bought them. I am very happy with their quality

Has anyone had any experience with eagle alloys, or Moto Metal?

My chrome H2's (OEM not boulders) aren't doing so hot. One bad winter on them and the chrome is pealing off the back side of the rim. The problem is the corrosion is sneaking around the front as once it's under the chrome it travels like lightning. Sucks because these wheels look perfect otherwise.

Seems like the lower quality wheels don't spend the time to properly prep the backside of the wheel which is where the corrosion starts and quickly spreads to the front.
