Apologies if this question has been asked before, but looking through the threads I didn't see this issue, but if it somewhere else, please guide me to it. I'm a newbie owner of an '02 Susuka Blue beauty.

Although I enjoy the stock rims, I was thinking of putting on chrome wheels or spoked rims instead.

Are spoke rims a hassle to maintain?
Where can I find additional chrome or spoke rims for my stock tires?

Thanks,

-Vince

 

More than you can imagine. First they are difficult to clean. Second, they'll need to be trued every couple of years. Third, Spoked rims for cars are especially difficult to true. Fourth, All the guys who were good at it are dead.

 

I guess that takes care of the spoked wheel question.

 

um, point taken...

Don't get chromed wheels. Those are ugly although you see them a lot in this country (US).

 

Thanks, yea, I'm over it.
I just had a momentary lapse of 1977,
and then I didn't want my car to look like a cruiser with Cragers.
Whew. Feels good to be back to the future now.
