Dodge has been making the chrome clad wheel's for a while . My 07 Ram 1500 4x4 had chrome clad 20's on it . I traded it in on the Challenger I understand the feeling when you found out it wasn't chome plated. I was told if the chome was damaged. The dealer could replace the plastic chome part on my truck wheel's. I wasn't crazy about my wheel's either . But have gotten used to the look's. They should be as strong as those that don't have the chrome cover . I saw in one of the Mopar magizines you could order the Rally wheel's like on the 71 Challenger R/T in 20's or what ever size you want . Since the car does look like the older Challenger . That should look good. I took it they where steel wheel's and chromed. I may check that out. And put some high perf tire's on them . And winter tire's on the stock wheel's.
