You might think about polishing the lip of the rims because , IMO, they help break up the black between the rim and the tire. Here is a pic of what I mean on TXSVTLIGHTNING's truck.

Just need to find you a quality shop. I think they charged around the same $300-400 to do them. Then to polish the lip I think TXSVTLIGHTNING used a detail/finishing sander with progressively finer paper to take off the powdercoating. Then once he got to the bare metal started using polishing agents to get the finish he wanted. It's been awhile since I asked him, but thats the jist of it. Hope you finally get your bike done man
