IMHO no one ever did better chrome than Premier's Diamond Chrome Plating. A fantastic chrome finish!

100% i agree when it came to chrome plating , premier was the leader and they did the chrome for rolls royce.

Ok..question time..

If you find a 10 lug Hi-Fi,is it a non Reso snare?

In other words,are all 8 lugs Resos?
