If you want polished wheels, get a set of Mahles. They look much better than polished Fuchs IMO.

Thanks to all of you for your responses. I have decided to have the old tires dismounted, take the wheels home and clean them up, get new alloy center caps and have the new tires mounted. No polish at all. They are in pretty good shape with no curb rash. Once I remove the old weights from the lips....they will look good.
I'm not trying to do a show quality restoration. I want it to look like a clean, unmolested example and enjoy driving it. Thanks again, Jack |
