    Well I'm trying to do this as quickly and cheaply as possible. I don't own or have access too a bead blaster and that would also mean having to take the tires off which I don't want to have to do..

      Dang. Coming along quite nicely! I will admit glad I bought polished versions instead of working backwards but you do good work! Coming along nicely.

        props so far man,, mad work, i polished just the lips on my old 18's and i had to block out some curb rash on the lip. took so much elbow grease man, i had to start with 60 grit to get the curb rash out and then i went with every paper in between up to 2000 then mothers, came out nice but SOOO much work. ended up with pop eye forearms haha

            Not anything update worthy. Stripped the wheels, now I am trying to sand them smooth by hand. The surface is pretty pitted and it will look like shit when polished, so I have to get it to a finish that I like first. Been really with school and building an engine on the side, but there will definitely be updates soon :)
