Default Chrome 5 spoke refinishing .

I have a set of 5 spoke chrome wheels 17x9.5, and 17x11. The 17x11 are pitted in the lug area. Not sure which way to go. Can they be refinished chrome or even painted to look ok. Like the chrome but not against painted to look factory either. I am currently using my stock rims for the 91, but I prefer the five spoke. I suppose I could get away with just the rears as the fronts arn't too bad. And I do have a set of 4 five spoke chromes from my 96 vette all 9.5" not perfect but good.

Are they the repops that dont have the deep lug wells in the rear?

AFS wheels sells them cheap. To have yours stripped and redone would be fairly pricy. I think Tomz wheels has some type of exchange wheel program gong on.

No they are the deep one's previous owner got from Ron Kreigh. Which he traded off a set off the painted five spokes for the chrome. I would have kept the painted wheels if it were left to me.
