I just stole these of CL while driving through KY last weekend.

Should I leave them as is? or have them fully polished?

(Have a Buddy who will do all 4 of them for $100)

These are the wheels and the future project.

(Not restoring, gonna be a Daily Driver)

I did some work for the Guy who owns the Dually
and all I asked for in return was the Truck (Free)
It does run and drive, however it doesn't stop

I'm calling it "UNDERAG" (My Max Budget is $1000)

Don't know how many noticed, but these wheels
are Front or Rear only. (Not able to swap them)

Found that to be kinda strange, one had a bad
spot and it's at my Buddy's Machine Shop, rest
of em are awaiting it's return to go to polisher.

About $100 seems to be the going rate to polish 4 rims, dunno if you can get a discount at some places for them being 16's instead of 19.5, 22.5, etc. and also that they're loose off the truck so they should be easier to work with. Then again if it's your buddy doing it shit just pay him and be done.

I'm looking around in Houston for someone to polish my 19.5 Alcoa's, they're really not in bad shape but I figure it would be best to shine them up before bothering with mounting etc. A few of them are just grubby as hell inside from previous owner's axle seals leaking.

He's disabled so he will take his time, and My other "buddy" wanted
around $40 a wheel. I'm in no rush cause it's a back burner project.
