I didn't think the chrome would stick because they are "cast" aluminum.

They look better than my front rim in that 2nd pic.
They look fine to me. Just don't let anyone get down on the ground to look at yer rims

They look good from the pictures, but if you are not happy, it won't get any better. Try the nice approach, and if that doesn't work, give them hell and see what comes of it.

Look good to me, but it is hard to see the fine details. You have to keep in mind, all wheels are not perfect... LoL! Relax, they look great! Enjoy them!

They also look good to me too. Hard to see any defects in the pics. I've always said the MoCo should have a chrome option for the Rocker wheels. Chrome wheels really set that bike on fire. Good luck with the outcome on your wheels.
