        RD's are far hotter than stockers. Keep them.

            those would be very easy to refininish yourself. now a set of 15" basketweaves with 34 spokes to clean, sand, primer, wetsand, paint, and clearcoat is another story..

            I'd probably sell them though, and put the money towards something I really liked (such as multi peice BBS wheels), although I do like the RD wheels quite a bit.

              yeah, i'd love to get some rs or rm's later down the road, but these wheels are definitely starting to grow on me. if i can get a good deal on refinishing i might just keep them. my only concern with sanding/painting them myself is the curb marks. some are somewhat deeper, how should i go about getting rid of those?

                use a fine file to get most of it out, and fill the rest in with spot filler (bondo). then sand, primer, etc..

                  yeah i was thinking bondo and a file.. i might just make these into my summer project. if anyone wants them though, just throw me an offer and i'll consider it.

                  thanks for the input guys.
