Fmr12B - you're talking about chrome wheels. He's asking about polishing the wheels. I'm sure there are plenty of sets of wheels that have been chromed.
As Swazo's link pointed out, I stripped two E1 wheels of their finish. The aluminum is not smooth underneath and was pitted and very rough. It would take more than just stripping the paint and adding some polish to get them to look good. Unfortunately, I never had the time to finish the job. Maybe one day I'll get back to it, but it will require work.
