I do not think you would have any problem polishing any aluminum wheel. I have polished many cast Italian wheels in the past, and they turn out stunning.

Al Reed did it. He had that set for a couple months. Now I think the delay is more. But it has been several years and they still look outstanding!

I don't have pics to add but I must say, regarding the "fuchs purist" mention.

I removed my Euro's w gummie bears with the orig 16x6/7 Fuchs, side by side, I greatly prefer the Euros. IMO, their better proportioned and just better looking...but hey, what do i know
