Firehawk Chrome wheel question

Post by Cino956 » Tue Jun 19, 2012 7:34 pm

So I been looking for oem chrome wheels for my 2002 firehawk and finally found two,got them in today but they look like polished aluminum and not chrome. Did they make both chrome wheels and polished aluminum wheels for Firehawks? Or is it that the wheels are beat up from time? Thanks in advance

I believe they did make a few polished ones, but I don't think they were very common.

If they are aluminum I have had great success with Mothers Aluminum (am I spelling that right?)
polish and their Power Ball. Used both big and little Power Balls. They really help to bring the shine out.
