When i had my C5 Z06 i had the wheels stripped then powdercoated.
Had a light sand blast then coated, didn't take the copper off though.
The local chroming guy was a bit of an arse, took some persuading just to strip the chrome, that's why I went powdercoat.

$6,000 HRE rims on my 1999 C5
Came anodized black,
but heat transferred from the brakes during racing and the color bleed out and looked like real crap :mad:

. About 16 years ago I had them powder coated black glossy, and they still look like new
