You don't provide anywhere near the needed information.

1. Are the wheels OEM?

2. What year sensors?

3. Is there any curb rash?

4. Overall condition of the wheels are .........? (Pictures would really assist here )

5. What are the tire thread depths?

They're polished. With a good shine they look like chrome.
