Wheels, Polish? Spray Bomb? Sell?

[PToombs]

Tim, Pete, how's $40, and you two duke it out?

$40 is fine, we'll split the pay, and the rims!

[TWorline]

Thats right, they can only see one side of the truck at a time anyways!

[oldestof11]

Ike, I was planning on using a Mothers Polishing ball as my uncle, an avid car enthusiast and collision repair specialist, uses them and swears by it.

[CumminsPower59]

Well, might just have them sold locally, and turning a profit

[bmoeller]

"Wheelin'" n dealin' huh?

[CumminsPower59]

Pretty much, sold a bunch of stuff today, 6.5 core engine, 350 vortec parts. Hauling a truck to the crusher tomorrow.

[redneckroot]

Any idea what the back spacing on them is?

[CumminsPower59]

Backspacing is 4 1/2".

[redneckroot]

Thanks for the info.

[PToombs]

Jeez, see what getting engaged does? He's cleaning the yard, and selling good stuff to remodel the kitchen and bathroom for her!

[CumminsPower59]

C'mon! It ain't like that! Bathroom is already done, and the kitchen is good enough. The doucher who wanted the wheels was a no show so I said F it, went to the chrome shop, bought $50 in aluminum polishing supplies and started polishing them. Spent three hours on one wheel, but it looks almost new now Might still sell them when I am finished cleaning them up. I wish they would fit as is, oh well.

[PToombs]

Oh, ok. Selling siht to pay for the ring then!

That's a good job when you are depressed or mad, sit there with a beer or 6 and just polish.

That's a good job when you are depressed or mad, sit there with a beer or 6 and just polish.

Yup, and when you're done you can get to work on those wheels.

After three hours of cutting, couldn't get around those stupid fake beadlock bolts with the cutting wheel I finished hand polishing that after I took the picture. I have about five hours into two wheels right now, still have to go over them both and put a finish cut on them. I am sure I will have 20 hours in machine polishing all four, and another four or more hand polishing Still might sell them, but the price will be a bit higher with my time and the cost of the products I have used.
