Recommendations for Wheel Re-chromers....
I'm looking for reputable and reasonable wheel refinishers/re-chromers in the US. We have a 19-inch Atlas chrome front wheel that suffered cosmetic damage when my wife's XK8 was struck three weeks ago by a careless driver. The insurance company intends to replace this wheel, but neither the body shop nor the local Jaguar dealership parts department has been able to locate a suitable replacement in the US or UK.
If you have experience with a reputable wheel shop please provide the name, location, and contact information. Thanks for any assistance in this endeavor.... |
I have personally had fantastic results and service, provided by Alloy Wheel Repair Specialists, Inc. www.awrswheelrepair.com
I can try to pull out some of my old correspondence I had with their corporate headquarters back when I bought my current STR if you like or need - but probably all you will need to do is surf their site for location/contact information near you & go from there. Hope this helps. Good luck! -Grant |
I checked their website and I see no mention of chroming or rechroming. But I will call them to confirm. Thanks for responding....
Right now it appears that my best option may be CalChrome in California. We'll see.... |
Update:
We finally located a suitable replacement wheel at CalChrome in California. It should arrive at the body shop today or tomorrow.... |

I sent off some fair lattice rims to cal chrome and they returned after chroming in absolutely fantastic new condition. This is my second great experience with them. I found them reasonable, given what we are looking for, and prompt and professional. I dealt with Dave Karasseferian there.
