    Well they are not that bad a deal but I would estimate 100-150 a wheel to refinish depending on what you do (Polishing would be best!!) You could strip them yourself to save money, but you still need adapaters and rubber so not going to be that cheap by the time they are mounted, but they would look good!!

        There's a powder coating place here in Halifax that sandblasts and powders (any colour or finish) for about $100 per wheel. I'm not suggesting that you send it to Halifax, just that you may want to look at a similar option at a local shop.

        I agree that polishing those wheels would be hot . . . they cry out for shine since your ride is a darker colour - it would be a nice tonal offset.
