Does anyone know of a Chrome Aero Rim, with sufficiant side wall for brakes?

Alienation told me their Aero rims dont have enough sidewall for brakes.
Odyssey T-1000's Dont come in Chrome.
Sun ICI 1, Really dont know alot about these rims. They look like they could run brakes.

Help Peepages?

Thanks.

If its a single wall rim you cant run brakes fullstop.

I have the Alienation Deviant aero rim. I think it is possible to still use brakes on these rims. Just use a thinner brake pad. It will take a little while for the pads to take the shape of the rim for optimum peformance. On chrome rims I think the brakes should still work good
