You can strip the clear off and polish the lips.... here's a write up for the whole wheels: https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...ight=stripping

Yes you can strip them and leave them bare but you will have to keep up with the polishing every month or so. You can also have them clear powdercoated. I would just strip em' and polish em', you will get the best shine. Just find a way to protect that black paint while your stripping.
