Finish on early wheels - what should it look like?
Maybe this belongs elsewhere in the forum, if so, please accept my apologies.
I have a 1985 w/ the "X" wheels (plus marks, not sure what to call them - the wheels that seem to be on most 83-85 non GSL-SE cars). I know they should be shiny with the satin finish on the recessed portion of the wheel.
My question is ... I managed to pickup a set of waffle style wheels, that I think were from a 1979 or 1980 RX-7. They appear to have a slight oxidation to them. Can I refinish these? If so, what should they look like in terms of luster (is that the right word?) Should they be a flat finish? Semi-gloss?
thanks.

Yep and that silver paint can be done with the silver duplicolor wheel paint you can find in any auto supply store. It was almost a perfect match to my new OEM spare wheel I have.
