Once chromed, the chrome is now chipping and rusting. Given the cost of new 19" wire wheels, I'm wondering if these can be salvaged. No spokes are b; /html/mgs/2007-08/msg00143.html (7,438 bytes)

Dayton only uses stainless on the spokes due to the embrittling of the chroming process. I cant see the spokes but I cant imagine they could not be just; /html/mgs/2007-08/msg00144.html (7,733 bytes)
