Hi! I have a 2006 Z06 with "chrome" rims. The high quality GM clear coat is coming off. Does anyone know of any shops in the central New Jersey area who re-finishes rims. I would like to have my actual rims done. I do not want to trade them in as a core. Thanks!!!

There's a place not too far from you in Burlington called Wheel Works on Route 130. I've never used them but I know others that have and they were pretty happy with the work.
I'd post their number but it might be against forum rules (non sponsor).

Are they high polish or chrome? The high polish wheels have a clear coat I suspect the chrome wheels don't.

Which ever type has the clear coat...

I live in Howell too.... Try "Alloy Wheel Repair" 908-616-9544
I know they do the work for Freehold Mercedes and Schneider Nelson Porshe/Audi in West Long Branch.

Hey i'm from ocean township and work in the car business so i know a lot of wheel guys. you can try advanced wheel repair out of Jackson. also the place kwicksilver wheel repair (www.kwicksilverusa.com) has a pretty good reputation although I have heard repairing chrome and or alloy wheels are almost impossible.... good luck!

Must be Polished, pretty sure that chrome was not available til '08.

my (Speedlines) original Z06 wheels are chrome and NO clearcoat.

Not so sure about kwicksilver. Talked to him about painting my wheels with a yellow stripe. Called me right back, told him what I wanted, emailed him pics. Assured me that he'd get back to me the next day "no matter what". That was five weeks ago, so evidently he couldn't even be bothered to respond to the email, let alone call to say he wasn't interested. Nice way to run a business. Happy ending anyway, found a local guy who did a great job for me.
