Bought these wheels earlier this year. They had light to moderate curb rash and one wheel had some overall oxidation that made it look sort of gray. Overall not in bad condition at all. -thanks for a good deal Mark

Shipped them to Al Reed 3-4 weeks ago. I shipped them 2 wheels to a box and it cost $32 per box to ship them to Al.

Nevermind, I posted too soon. Yes, I am a geek.

I have the same wheels polished by a local shop here. By comparison my wheels look like they were sandblasted.

Your wheels are sick!

Michael - If you're referring to the wheels in your avatar - they look great in the avatar.

I can assure you....the finish on your wheels are WAY better than mine. Mine look good in a 1" x 1" avatar and when they are spinning at 60mph......so I guess they look pretty good most of the time! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif)

Doug, They look great. One more thing I want to do to my car over the winter. I have my street tires mounted on a set of nice fuchs but they need cleaned up bad. Anyone have Al do a set of rims that look stock, just the lip and paddles polished with the inset painted (or is it anodized) (sp) silver.

A great set of wheels are like shiny earings that set your body off.
