    Polished shows all of the irregularities on those rims. How about a brushed look? Keep up the good work.

    Black on top of aluminum rims NEVER!!! only cast aluminum then it`s OK

    Very nice if you like polished stuff. I would have painted it black...

    I think it's fantastic. I may be a bit partial.

    I was gonna do just that but....the tire was so hard I could not even collapse it enough to get the bead let alone get the tube out. Plus if I got to close to the rim with a dremel it would go right though it like butter...this rim is that soft. But being this soft has its advantages though it was easy to repair The rear won`t be as bad since it got changed more regularly and there is no tube along with a larger tire surface to work with...this will be next

    Kris, I know you know what you are doing but when faced with a tire that is old and petrified, one way to get it off without damaging the rim is to cut the tire off with a box cutter and then dremmel though the bead with a cut off disc. I've used this method a couple of times now and it saved the rims all kinds of abuse.

    Keep going...
