Default Pro Comp Wheel Knight-Chrome Finish

Has anyone seen the Procomp Knight-Chrome Finish in person? I am very interested in this finish. At first glance i think they look to be similar in color to the AEV argent.

Pictures on any vehicle would be great.

Thanks!

What does "Hub Centric = No" mean? Do Jeeps require hub centric rings when using tuner wheels like most all foreign cars? Just curious if "Hub Centric = No" was a good thing for JK's, thanks!

Some hubs require "Hub Centric" Rings to allow for a better tighter fit these rims do not require them. Hence "Hub Centric = No" so yes that is a good thing.

they are kewl, but for the money, I like the pintler beadlocks. One of the few wheels that is cast to be a beadlock rather than the cut -n-weld method. But great looking wheels. Just my .02

Hub centric = no would mean they are not hub centric and would be recommended to run spacer rings to prevent shaking/vibrations.

I got to see the Argent Pintlers mounted side by side with the Knight Chromes.

Both look awesome!!, but I just didn't want any bling at all for my Jeep. The Knight Chrome has some flash to it. Not saying anything bad about it, but I just wanted a more muted look.

There is another wheel I really like as well, but it was unavailable when I mounted the Pintlers. It's the ProComp 7028

OK THIS IS A WARNING....If you order the Knight Chrome Wheels, SPECIALLY if you order them from 4wheel parts, DO NOT sign for them until you unwrap the palet and check that they all MATCH, as you see my sig I had trouble with them....I talked directly with procomp and according to them different batches come out different, darker/lighter.....4wheelparts refused to do anything about it because I had signed for the wheels

I have the pro comp knight khrome wheels and i love the look of them...i am also on my second set because the original set the finish peeled off every wheel around the tire..they were replaced no questions asked but it took 11 wheels to match the correct shade, even though they all had the same part number..my new ones are holding up perfect..
