Default How would my wheels look polished your opinion?

I really want to get some deep dish rims that are polished but I have some priotities, boost and paint

a company here in Oceanside will polish my wheels for $75 each he said that will almost look like chrome



how do you guys think they will look?

they are 17 inch Enkei Bortex w/ unknown offset they look ok but I'm aiming for a different look

I dont think it would make much of a difference since there is very little face. On a wheel with thicker spokes and a dish it might be worth it.

not worth it. if you had a wheel with a fat lip it would make a world of a difference. they look good the way they are. in this case...quite literally...dont try to reinvent the wheel

The wheels look fine the way they are. Save your $300 towards your boost project!
