Just stole some wheels.... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Na, not really but I did get the whole set for $150.00. Not that bad for 20x8's. They all need some tlc, but over all pretty nice.

ETsC10 · 03-21-2011, 11:49 PM

Good for you Packrat...great deal!
Not usually a fan of the big shiny
but those are very nice.

Have fun and be sure to show them
off after you spiff them up!

Congrats on an awesome score Packrat!!

VA72C10 · 03-23-2011, 08:24 PM

Nice score! They look good!

packrat42 · 03-31-2011, 10:09 PM

After almost a week of mothers power ball the center of the wheels still will not clear up. The lips look like new money. So I was thinking about painting the centers a graphite gray, and leave the lip's polished. Does anyone have any tips or how to's.

Twisted Elegance · 03-31-2011, 10:46 PM

more than likely the centers are a cast aluminum and will never be as shiny as the hoops. you might get them to look decent but probably not as nice as the hoops. painting the centers might do the trick for ya.

Thanks, Do you have any tips on painting them?

PT'S 70 CST · 04-01-2011, 11:04 AM

What about using some 0000 steel wool with some soapy water or wet sanding them with a super fine sand paper and then polishing them. What polish are you using. The best I have ever used is California Custom purple polish. You will not find a better polish anywhere imo.
