Alright I've been googling it, but I can't seem to find anything really explaining the process. I just want it to get rid of curb rash etc. I like the look of the stock wheel and I am going for subtle looks, so no painting it.

And if anyone has done this, approximately how much did it run you?

Is this considered allow wheel refinishing?

I'm lost. I want mine to look like snapshotgt's wheels in the end.

Thanks

depends on how deep the curb is. Shops fill in the curb rash then grind/sand it down then paint. Stock GTS rims looks like the Liquid silver Tacoma or Celica paint scheme cuz it has pearl.

i just meant no painting different colors, guess i should clarify...can they not refinish them like they came from the factory? Is that paint from the factory or an alloy finish that is baked on...or powdercoated on?
