took him out for his first test drive on the "new" rims. Ran and drove beautifully but had to stop for a quick "shoot"

Thank you. Is the 40th more of a "chrome" look?

Correct, 40th AE has a chrome like effect.

The last I read there was a debate on whether they are polished or painted.

I picked up a set of spare wheels that look like they have been polished or look like they have a mirror finish that I'll be having painted.

OP nice work.

like satin chrome, 'shot polished' is the marketing term
