    quit being lazy and do it yourself. It's not difficult to polish wheels, it just a pain in the ass and time consuming.

    with the way the wheel market is now....... why pay someone to polish or refinish wheels.... just buy new ones.

    You want polished mesh wheels with a mirror finish...?
    here you go....... $129 a piece.

    I do love those new xxr's... I thought about selling my D2's and buying some, but im going to hold off.

    Any reason you want polished over chrome dipped or powder coated? how fine is the mesh? Like the wheels sinfix posted, or like bbs rs's?

    I wouldn't mind having those new XXRs. 5x114 is becoming a pain in the ass to find a decent set of wheels without having Mustang fitment.

    100$ a wheel too much for FULL wheel polish?,think that includes inside the barrel also. Varrstoen wheels has that an option before ordering.
