I would have them painted, and have a rattle can of the same colour paint for home repairs.

Scuffed rims are a pet hate of mine. You've no chance trying to tidy diamond cut rims, but it's possible to do a half decent job on painted rims with the right colour and some laquer.

Yes, I’ve painted mine.

I've never understood the fascination with machined/polished wheels either..

Just get them refurbished in silver or a.n.other colour of your choice...job done!

Yep powder coating for me, probably more durable than paint in my experience anyway.

Until they meet a kerb. Then, they cannot be touched up as far as I am aware.

Thanks for the tips...

I think i will machine grind and wet n dry back the lacquer then primer and rattle can spray it a gun metal colour.

I have a spare to practice on....just incase it looks terrible

I like to have a go myself and as already mentioned by someone previously i can touch up as and when.

Now for a warm sunny day..
