chrome rims are eventually gunna start to chip/flake off so ya you would have to get them re-dipped in chrome. costs about 100 per wheel.

n i know i have hub caps right now but i found that it's easiest if you use a plain paper towel(the hard ones, not the soft ones). n make sure it's not wet. rims/hub caps get really dirty real fast so with paper towels you wont have to wash them everytime you use it, you just simply throw them away...
