Sounds kind of expensive. It costs about $50 to get a 22.5 wheel polished on a truck. I don't pay for polishing, but I have had drivers who paid it on their own. And of course there is doing it yourself with jewelers rouge. Some drivers do this to kill time while waiting to load or unload.

There is other options besides spending 500 big ones on them. Check out your local body shops for ideas and what works best. I know you can do it and probably better than what you pay for these days.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
