Hot Wheels Sixty Eights

First let me thank Mike "JST4FN" for parting with these awesome tires and giving me such a great deal! "Thank you Mike!"

I love these wheels since I first saw them and knew they would look amazing on Angelina. The tires are Avon Tech M550 All seasons and they are 275/40/18's all around.They fill up the wheel well nicely and give her a mean stance, especially since she's lowered. I have received nothing but nice comments from family, friends, co-workers and complete strangers!

So what do my fellow TMS members think of them?

Looks good. I think some painted calipers would accent them even better

Love them!
Question:Are they Chrome plated Aluminum or high polished? Chrome plate Aluminum doesn't react to well to road salt. Gertie is a year round driver.

I was thinking the same thing after looking at the pictures but can't decide on the color. In the not too distant future I was hoping to add antique white stripes so I haven't decided on the calipers color. Any suggestions?

They are Chrome plated and only for summer use. I'll switch back to my Upgraded 17's come the end of fall. Like Gertie, Angelina is year round also.
