As negative or neutral as some of the responses sounded, I think you need some major props, regardless of the color scheme you chose. Even though I think you should have gotten the rims free, $50 is still cheap. The way the curb rash was eliminated completely and smoothed out, looks professional. The two-tone paint looks unique and I think it would look good either on a gold, or white coupe. To increase the quality of the wheels, I would have them powdercoated, or painted a single color though - you can see on your wheels the blemishes around areas where you taped off on the spokes.

did you have them put on a wheel balancing machine to make sure they spin true? you cant really straighten an aluminum wheel.

and when i worked at honda we took scrap aluminum to the junk yard, i think wheels like that got 20-30 a wheel.

You need to resize those pics. Good job on the restoration, but I'm with Ray on the color scheme.
