Can painted 04 wheels be polished??
I have a set of stock painted wheels on my 04 coupe, i wanted to know if it were possible to strip and polish them out with good results, they are perfect with no damage, I would geuss I would buy the center part in polish to match, just not sure, any advice here?
Also can I fit a 315 drag radial on the rear?

It is possible, it will take a lot of work though. My buddies and I used to strip motorcycle frames and wheels and polish them. As far as tires go, I have seen people on the forum put 315s on the factory Z wheels.
, is it a real sign ? Where, idiotville ?

stripping them is possible but as stated a whole lot of work.
you then would have to have them professionally polished by a wheel polisher @ about $125/wheel. Since polished wheels oxidize you will have to do that every 3-4 years also.
Even GM polished wheels are painted with a clear coat to lock the oxidization out. you could pant them after they are polished but will end up with the same "milky" look that the GM wheels have.
You may just consider having them chromed.
