    I notice there is some flaking going on around the places that are damaged. What do you think that would be? How would one go about restoring the polished lip? [/b]</blockquote>
    Yeah, I could see that in your picture. I dont think there is a reasonable way to fix this damage. It is probably cheaper to buy a new wheels since they cost, what, like $125-150/wheel now?

    If they were my wheels and they were truly a second set, I would sand the lip down on all 4 wheels, spray on a primer and then spray on some "wheel paint". You can find it at auto parts stores and Griot`s Garage even has some. I would just do gray and be done with it. It may not look as nice as with the polished lip but it should still look pretty decent.

    Im lucky, I guess. I have 2 sets of Type R wheels (one with street rubber, one with kumho race rubber) and a set of steel wheels (with snow tires on it).

    Yeah. I still have my stock wheels and some other Racing Hart C2 replicas. These had better tires on em than my stocks so I figured it isn`t a bad idea to have nice looking wheels in the winter. I`ll probably just repaint them this summer or something.
