Default Xj6 series 3 rims-

Hi Guys- whats the proper way to restore the silver part of the rims? The black middle on my car looks flawless but the outsider silver area looks tired.
Also happy to buy new ones if there is a supplier.

Hi, here's the link to my post about the new Maxilite polished Kent style rims. I didn't like how the factory lug nuts allowed more play before being tightened so I found better fitting replacements.

You could also have yours powder coated or possibly redone by a car wrap business, just not sure how durable that is.
The other option is to try do it yourself junk yards or ebay for better looking replacements, I've found a few like new locally.

Cheers,
Brian
