I was the one and only bidder, got a great deal at $30 I think. They match the rears wheels I just recently bought.

Some new tires all around and they will look great. To polish or not is the question. Leaving them the way they were manufactured might be preferred?

I'd leave them all brushed finish!

I agree, I think that is what will happen. Shiny is nice, but not in this case.

You already know my answer...polished! Anybody can install a set of humdrum raw-finished alloy wheels on their car, and it'll look just like everybody else's that bought those same wheels. But the guy who goes to the trouble to polish up the wheels ends up with something that stands out from the rest. IMHO, polished aluminum has a classy look that's not the same as the el-cheapo "bling bling" look of chrome-plated plastic. People know it took elbow-grease. 8)

All originals. I was stoked to find them! The vanning sheet were part of the set :mrgreen: I figured they were on the rare side as I haven't stumbled across any. I wonder what the likelihood of me owning one is tho. I had a vanning bitd.
I was mainly wanting the ultima set, the rest were just too hard to pass up.

Holy cow Sandkil- that's a big box for one sheet! I bet you thought they accidentally sent you a classic kit :lol:
