Re: wheel refinishing?
So I got my wheel back today.. Well worth having them done..
They are Powdercoated in color and then Powder Clear Lifetime warranty from defects etc.. Asked the guy I worked with and the color is a close enough match you will not be able to tell.. I will get some pictures once I get them out of the box and bolted back tot he barrels. Now for a hood....... and get the rockers done

Re: wheel refinishing?
Now to decide what to do about bolts..
I have 40 of the one on the left, 120 of the one on the right any thoughts?

I would think it important to match the shoulder of the bolt also to the 120 also. I'd think the shoulder length is maybe just a couple mm short of the total depth of the bore for the multi-piece when assembled. You didn't mention size or a post a profile so what I mention could be speculation but I wouldn't think. The one on the right looks like it might carry a "trademark". Yes/No? I would think it not a problem. The catch could be is that I believe some of the multi-piece are done with 7mm hardware. Yours are? Wheel centers certainly do look good. They did you well.
