You're right,in one way. They are steel, but brass plate is a stage in the process of a proper chrome job, such as factory chrome. That's why factory chrome lasts eons longer than most aftermarket chrome.

Frank, not wanting to booger up your sale thread, but maybe the info will help others see the value here. Finding the chrome ones with a finish this nice is far tougher than with the stainless. I'd buy both sets right now if I wasn't this close (><) to buying a used work truck as soon as I find the right one. just don't know how much cash I'll need to that,yet. Those caps are nice!
