Bryanj:
Usually cheaper to replace than re chrome as the time involved in derusting is huge

I paid 110 GBP to have an 18" x 1.85 rear rim rechromed. It only have very slight pitting to begin with. That rim looks beyond economical  repair to me.

Pretty much what the wheel builder said, but it's always good to get some second opinions.

Tim - worth speaking with David at www.saisei-europe.com - he's doing some cracking deals on DID rims at the moment.

Yes James ... I spotted them on Yamiya's site for the 400/4 and David came back with a cracking price. Pity about the scripting that DID put on nowadays  but you can basically have a pair brand new for not much more than the cost of re-chroming a single rim (probably the same if you take the too-ing and fro-ing of getting a re-chrome done.
