I have some pretty bad pitting on a couple of my wheels and also a chip from curb rape from previous owners neglect. I was needing some opinions on what to do. Should i sandblast and PC them? If so what color would you go with? I thought a gun metal or comp grey would look good with my truck color. I assume im better off buying a new set than paying for re-chroming, but any insight on the matter will be helpful. thanks!

Well first you couldn't buy a new set you would have to find them used. Are they chrome or polished aluminium? You would be surprised what you can do with aluminum. Powder is always an option the new "chrome" powder coat doesn't look that bad imo
