View Full Version : Who, if anyone can turn the face of aluminum wheels

My 1967 Camaro pro touring build has sucked most of the money from my budget, I'm sure I'm not the only one. The wheels I am currently running fit a function really well but they are quite ugly, they are BMW m5 staggered wheels from the early 90's. I'm wondering if there are any wheel finishing companies that could mount these on a lathe and turn the outer surfaces of the rim and spokes to expose the bright aluminum and create a contrast. Has anyone tried this? Thanks, Bill

Where are you located? Here in L.A. we have LAX Wheel that does almost anything you want.

Thanks for the reply, but I'm in eastern Wyoming.

Kevin Oeste from V8TV did a video on the subject which seems appropriate to this question.
