Any nice polished 18" for SS?

I have an LE5 and like my polished wheels but I'm looking to step up to 18" and keep my stockers for winter... the polished LSJ wheels seem redundant, so any suggestions for some nice looking 18" polished/chrome wheels that aren't ricey?

Redundant as **** because my car looks like this...



Most people wouldn't even be able to tell a difference between the rims unless I mentioned it, even then still probably not.

Those polished LNF wheels look awesome too but that'd be pretty expensive to buy a set and then have it done on top of that.

You could do it for $530 and some labor= $132 per rim that's cheap

$530 + ~$600 for rims + ~$500 for tires. Not cheap for me.

Hey, my 18's are for sale. They're gunmetal, but I'm happy to prep them for paint for ya.

Yeah but any rims on here for $500 cost another $200 to ship for me. If I knew how to polish my own wheels without it looking like crap that'd make things a lot easier.

@robertwhamm I've had my eyes open for like a year... cheap GTP wheels don't come up every day.
