Market for death rims?
Looking at starting a business gold plating car and truck wheels AKA "death rims". I don't see many cars or trucks with them; do you think there is a market?

Why are they called death rims, and what metals can be plated? You thinking elecrodeposition or hammering?

Apparently because they are the target of carjackers:
Pricey Wheels Can Be a Dangerous Obsession - latimes Plating can cause hydrogen embrittlement. And plating shops have to conform to tough environmental regs. So know what you're doing. |

I would imagine there are a few wheels associated with Mercedes Benz that would qualify; Lorinser wheels, Eckler Mercedes Benz chrome wheel exchange, etc. I remember seeing an 1980s series SL awhile back with some very sharp looking wire wheels.

I doubt that many today would kill for a set of chrome-plated 14" bundts.
