Prime 5 Spokes should I polish or not?

If you look at the pic of my Jag I have Prime 5 spoke rims, they are clear coated but they are not polished. When I replace the tires should I was thinking of having the rims polished and clear powder coated. Any one had experience clear powder coating on rims? How well will it hold up?

Regards
Mark

Unless you are running a 18" or bigger rim, it will probably be cheaper in the long run to just buy a set of polished wheels. By the time you pay for someone to strip the wheel, polish the wheel and clear coat the wheel X4 you could probably find a nice polished/chrome set for a lot cheaper.
And whenever you have a chance to have the Jag hubs off of the car, take them and have them machined to fit GM wheels, that way if you ever decide to swap wheels again you won't have to machine every set of wheels.

On a side note....I have your heater ducts if you are still wanting them...send me a email or PM.

Later,
WEIMER
