thanks again...the wheels are stock 16" size with 225/60/16 stock sized tires. The cost to purchase the wheels, plus 4 centers off ebay and to get them fixed and polished was right up there with buying quality aftermarket rims. After I got them back I coated them with ZOOPSEAL, which claims to prevent corrosion for up to 2 years. I plan on only using them in the summer, and the car will not be seeing winters anymore as i will be storing it for winter. Because of their simple design, any polishing or cleaning is really easy and the Mothers Buff Ball works great.

EDIT: oh and the pics were taken on a very very overcast day. Ill need to get a few of them in the sun.

The wheels look great! How did you do the center cap? Isn't it plastic? My clear coat is peeling really bad on my 98 Z34 wheels.

Those look great! Before I replaced them, mine had been fogged up and one of them had the clear coat peeling off.. Check out "Update- Replace or repair stock rims" for my current rims..
