how is the quality of helo. i live in illinois. they use salt on the roads wich destroys cheap chrome. i have a set of wheels that the chrome is flaking off of and looks like crap. will helo rims last?
I had a set of helos on my old 06 silverado, I live in Ohio, and they didn't make it one winter. I big section of chrome peeled on a back wheel and no matter how clean I kept them they pitted.
Nota chance. I'm here in the Chi also and I had a set of Helo Kicks and took then off in the winter and they still pitted and pealed in certain spots. That's why I went with the black wheels and haven't taken them off once in 7 years, except to put her in the shop.
what is a good brand then that will stand up. i know chrome does not have to flake. i had a set of 454ss wheels that i ran year round with out a single mark.
Here in Chicago, I see more factory wheels out lasting aftermarket wheels. I have my factory wheels and sent them out to be chromed out in 2000 when I got my truck and they are still holding. I haven't seen a chrome out last the weather here yet.
