Well these came off a 520-HC not sure on the year.

Saw this post and just checked mine on my 89 520-HC and think they are chrome as well.

 

Well these came off a 520-HC not sure on the year.

Had to be an '88 or '89. They were only produced these two years. That actually makes it more interesting as the HCs were obviously produced after the run of 418-Cs in 1987. Thinking about it the 418-Cs were built in 5 different runs from October '86 till May of '87. I'm betting this falls over part of or right at the end of the LSE production run. I'll bet money late production 418-Cs and from what you have discovered early production 520-HCs are where these "camouflage chromes" can most likely be found.

 

Naturally the 418 Commercial that I have has good ol' rusty painted wheels. <_<

I just checked my 1989 520-HC and think it has chrome rims under the silver paint

My 1988 520hc has a lot of rust on the rims, so I doubt they would even look good even if they did. But hey, I dont have to feel bad about rubbing a little paint off, right...:handgestures-thumbupright:
