Newell only started using real all chrome wheels a couple of years ago. almost all the others stock from the factory were super bright once available to the market. pre acid wash on the sb wheel will make it new when polished, just wash off after 30 seconds and apply cleaner. Eagle among other company's make an acid loaded wheel cleaner that works great on our wheels.
Michael , do you have the number of the first coach with these chrome wheels ???
In looking at the Coach Orders I have for a few of the newer coaches, the earliest one I find that mentions "chrome plated Alcoa aluminum wheels" is #1458, which was a 2013 model Tampa Show Coach with a Scheduled Delivery to Sales Date of 12/20/2011. The wheels are listed in the special option section at the end of the coach-order prior to any change orders. The first change order, which was dated 6/27/11, followed this entry.
By the Coach Order Sheet for #1467, about 5 months later, Item 509 had been added to the Order Form: Genuine chrome plated Alcoa aluminum wheels, 6 each.
