How is the finish on those? I am wanting to get some new wheels. I currently have S-lites that were all curbed by the previous owner. The other day I was rotating tires and barely touched the rim with the wrench and it scratched the paint. Could care less about the scratch because how much they are all curbed. My point is that the paint is really brittle and very easily scratched up.

Are all painted wheels like this?

Very nice wheels, but those tires were delivered to you missing the sidewalls.
