Machine faced cup wheels
Are the machine faced cup wheels raw aluminum/cleared, polished aluminum/cleared or silver painted/cleared?
I guess I want to know if they are closer to chrome or the painted wheel or somewhere in between.

You are right but if the exterior color is a silver gray or white; competition gray or silver wheels blend in much better.

I may buy a set for my CG 427 as I like the looks of them more than the anniversary edition cup wheels
