The entire setup has less than 3k miles on a fresh refinish.
The centers are sodablasted and the lips are polished.
There is no clearcoat, rather the wheels are protected with "shine seal"
amazing stuff

I have a fresh master kit that will be included in the sale.

Condition of the wheels are as follows.
No rash.
The only blemish is a minor bend... Its shown in the pictures, but may be difficult to pickup because of how insignificant it actually is.

Thank you for the kind words. The flat caps won't be sold separately. This set is staying together.

take it up top for the night.

set looks rather nice.

have a couple of questions though. the caps look to be of a different shade in some of the pics, were they painted at a different time - shade - technique? also, the bend in your wheel . . . 1st off, thanks for being so friggin' honest with us; I doubt it would have ever been noticed before money was forked over. anyways, how bad are the vibrations from it? what about the cap key, do you have one for this set?

& for wherever in michigan you are, what's the distance to chicago?

The caps and wheel faces were sodablasted and are a "raw" yet sealed finish. The lips are polished, with no clearcoat.
The wheels are sealed with the shineseal.
The reason for the color variation (which is drastically more pronounced in my pictures, than in person) is the difference in metals or quality of metal on the caps vs. the wheels. Im not really sure.
They were all refinished at the same time.
There are no vibrations from the "bend" The wheel has been on the front and back and there is nothing to notice. They all balance out perfectly despite their age. I do have all bolts and a brand new key for them.

I am about a 5 hour drive from Chicago.

If you would like them, I would need to know in the next day. I have a person locally who wants wheels minus tires, but I don't want the hassle of removing tires. If you do not want them, then I will go ahead with the local offer.

Wheels and tires are still available. If they don't sell by Friday, they are going to a friend locally.
