You might need to be more specific as to what kind you need. Usually somebody is willing to help. _________________ Dennis

I think he means 5 hole or 9 hole style. |

There the 5 hole for the 87 Crisco Oldsmobile, and a set for the 88 sunoco 88 Oldsmobile, I made a mistake by de chroming them.
sorry |

There are some VERY good chrome paints that will do a good job on the ones you dechromed. _________________ Dennis

I used Krylon and it worked pretty well. I seem to remember I painted the wheel flat black and them spray the chrome over that. Krylon has the "short cuts" which is a small can rather that the big size. I would expect Rustoleum and Duplicolor to work pretty well. I think painted chrome looks as good if not better that the model plated chrome as sometime the model plated plastic looks TOO shiny. _________________ Dennis

Gotta ask. Why did you de-chrome your wheels?
I've never considered that in over 500+ NASCAR builds. |

Now I understand the difference between 5 and 9 hole wheels, and I need the 9 hole wheels.
Sorry for the mix up.
Thanks |
