I have a 1997 z4c 30th anniversary z28 convertible, and when I purchased it chrome wheels were on it. My car does not have the N98 RPO code for chrome wheels, so I purchased a used set of correct white painted wheels. The new set is in need of minor repairs, stripping, and refinishing. My question is, am I better off using these wheels as a donor set and exchanging them for a set that has already been reconditioned, or am I better off having them repaired and refinished by a local company? I purchased the set I have for $200 plus around $90 shipping. Any input to help me out would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

 

Don't see that there would be much difference between the two paths, assuming the shop that did the repair work was/is reliable in each case.

 

Thank you for your input, much appreciated. I will get some estimates and go from there.
