I highly doubt it, I would have to see it to tell. I have yet to see a chrome dipped/coated aluminum wheel. Even though the adds say “black and chrome” its not literally Chromium plated. But who knows, I could be wrong. also price wise, $1000 wheels I dont see being plated either. not saying they are cheap or junk, just saying chrome dipping costs money.
