Here's a link to pictures of my wheel nuts & the adapters.  Haven't taken pics of the wheels yet.

I don't think the standard hub nuts are chromed; my memory is a stainless steel.  20 years ago though...

I'll jump in if David's not online; His wire wheels aren't chrome 
plated, he does say they're grey, only the hub nuts are chrome. I agree 
that wires shouldn't be chromed , but think of all those other makes 
with chrome wheels!
