Re: Can u polish stock rims??? I contacted a wheel repair company ( http://www.wheelcollision.com/ )about this, and they said that the factory painted or coated wheels were too porous to polish with good results.

Re: Can u polish stock rims??? If they are a "HIGH POLISHED" they should be able to be polished since they have already been polished. If they have a chrome coating you can sand the wheels down using a 80, 240, and maybe a 400 grit sandpaper(to make a smooth finish) and then polish them..... I am in this process now but I need extra time to work on them.
