There is no such animal as "factory" chrome 17. The factory 17's are painted silver (and clear coated AFTER 2004.)
Any chrome 17's have been chromed aftermarket.

I will have to wait for more info on this because I have been told from people who have them that 17 inch chome was an option... as a matter of fact there are several references to them in the media section of this board.

EDIT 1: Here is a link to a page mentioning them -

EDIT 2: OK so it looks like the factory chrome wheel option was a 18 not a 17, but I did see where people were having thier stock 17's chromed... looks good, but how much would that cost?
Last: Does anyone know what the factory 17's and 18's weigh?

Mine are chrome, but they're 18s... they were a dealership option during 2004

That is pretty bad ass, but by the time your pay for the chroming of the exchange wheel and the shipping you can buy pretty much any after market wheel you want... Thanks for the idea though...

Any chrome 17's out there are a dealer option, meaning the dealer had them chromed. They come silver from the factory.

I would be willing to do a switch with you, but my 17's are not chrome.... I know your looking for someone with chrome ones..... I like the way they look chrome also..... but I would be willing to switch with you and still pay you some money for your 18's..... and as far as it costing just as much as buying after market rims? I dont think so.... to chrome dip some 17's for all four will cost you about $700 bucks.... which isn't bad.... plus the money I would be willing to give you for the 18's..... My 17's have 5k on them.... just got the car in April... send me PM if you are interested..... :-patriot:
