Chrome in the winter


I bought some chrome wheels this spring and kept my old stock ones which are just aluminum i do believe but i was wondering if the chrome will hold up in the winter and/or does salt on the road ruin them?

yes the salt will have a bad corrosive affect on them, i would avoid using chrome rims in the winter.

Nevermind the corrosive effects, I would want to slide around on potential ice and what not.
