They look great!
I polished and repaited mine two years ago and just today finished the center covers. How I let myself get away with that I will never know. I plan to paint the crests next.
I run Yokos too - and mine were mounted wrong too. The yellow triangle indicates the lightest point of the tire circumference. It is supposed to be mounted at the valve stem which typically is the heaviest point on the rim. This reduces the total balance weight needed.
I noted that there was weight placed to compensate for this. It does seem to matter and help.
This is the PDF that describes the YOKO system.
