FEDBYVORTECH Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 I was just cleaning my 22'' foose speedsters and a huge piece of chrome peeled off. there over 1 yr old the production date is 1/22/04 does anyone have an info on who to contact if there is anything i can do? The truck only has 19k on it and this was one of the driest summers ever. I have never seen tires outlast the rims. Here is additional info off the rim F11522188P0A 1/22/04 1ST 3161 Im wondering if this was the first set made! I looked at the others and they have the samething happing not as bad yet. I will post a pic tonight its a big curl that will keep going if i pull it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylan06SS Posted October 16, 2005 Report Share Posted October 16, 2005 Did this require you to start 2 threads within a couple minutes of eachother? I'd say take them back to where ever you bought them... if they won't do anything about it then maybe find a chrome plating place and have them re-chromed.

montanass Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 best bet is probably to get them re-chromed bummer man... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FEDBYVORTECH Posted October 17, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 any idea who rechromes or what the cost would be? Something has to be wrong I just sold a 74 cutlass with original chrome bumpers on it and they looked pretty dam good. I cant even imagine what will happen to these in the winter. I sent an email to chipfoose they gave me an autoresponce to www.mhtwheels.com so i sent an email to them. I need a praying smilie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holty Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 also, do you have any pics from a little further away to get the whole "picture" of the wheels and tires? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwarren Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 I would find an e-mail for them and send the picture to them and be asking some questions. Unless someone has damaged the wheel, then I would say this is a quality issue on their end. That sucks big time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
