I would question the amount of abuse he is going to give these Chinese Cast wheels....
My first hand with these wheels - Bought a chrome set for the wife's daily driver. Upon arrival , the chrome is questionable .... Quite bad compared to true OEM wheels or a quality aftermarket like Weld or Centerline. Inconsistant chrome finish , poor detail to wheels before chroming. The sides of the spokes are rough and looks like a 6 year old prepped them before chrome. This is the third summer on the wheels and they are coming off soon Before all the chrome does. We DID NOT use these in the winter as we have snow tires on the factory rims.
My Opinion..... if your going for "LOOKS Only" on a Budget these might be ok. I would be making sure you cleaned them every time you park the car if you want the chrome to hold up against corrosive brake dust and pitting. For a summer cruiser that dosent get more than 3000 miles a year you might get years of life out of them.
For me ...... This is just the beginning of the third summer on the wheels and they are coming off before all the chrome does.
