Mark,

I just had a set done at Ye Ole Wheel Shop in Elkridge Maryland. They quoted me $50.00 ea. to polish, $15.00 ea. to mount and balance tires (I supplied new tires, unmounted) for a total of $260.00.

It turned out that though that 3 of the rims were bent (I bought them on ebay - no history.) To straighten them was another $95.00 ea. Not convinced they were bent (ever the optimist) I went there and they showed me. Sure enough, they were bent.

But the finished product looks terrific!

Can you tell me if the bolts that secure the covers should get any Loctite (blue maybe?)
