Picked up my newly restored 10 hole wheels from Keystone today. See the attached pics. The good news...they look real nice and I got them for $85/each instead of $100 each.
The other news...Keystone (at least Michigan one) has a diff't supplier they send the wheels to now and therefore whatever codes they use to restore these wheels are diff't. Evidently they have far fewer codes than old supplier and therefore have fewer codes to set up a match. They did my wheels twice to try and see if they could match closer (I provided a center cap for reference / Keystone told me they do not refinish center caps). Turned out just a slight touch glossier than the center caps. I did not press the center cap into the wheel yet but I placed it in there to snap one of the attached photos for a comparison picture. Real close but the scuitinizing eye may notice a slight difference. A set of restored 10 holes recently sold that appeared alot glossier than mine turned out. When I originally placed my order I made sure they knew it needed to be a satin finish (thanks Jim for that advice). It was good I made that clear up front. All and all I'm pleased with them and they will look awesome on the 93 Missouri State Highway Patrol SSP when installed this Spring  .

Had the re-machined 10 hole wheels installed on the MSHP SSP yesterday. Will get some decent pics to post as soon as possible. Makes a big difference. Spring weather has been very bad here so far.

I bought an extra set of 10 holes for $30 that I was going to have redone for the TX car. If we end up keeping her I may go ahead and get them done. Mike post some before and after pics when you get a chance.
