Get them lightly sandbasted or bead blasted (better). Spray a coat of gloss black over them, then clear (concentraiting on the inside) Then after dry, take a buffer And some course/then light compound and buff the top surface back to the slightly dull shine alloys have. And they will look good. My lattice style rims are painted on the inside to match the body. Attachment 126895
