Sprintmasters were for the '72 V8 XU1. They were given to 200 or so LJ XU1 purchasers in the boot. Rest of LJ XU1 had steel rims like LC and I think the cars prior to the last lot they were optional. Last 150 odd cars may have had them as standard too, can't remember.
Those GTS wheels are not 6 inch either. Probably 7 or 8. Good to fix up and put a big set of tyres on to fill out the guards.
They are 8inch I've got 235 on the front and 245 on the rear
Paint them up and use them then.
I'm going to pay the expense and get them recromed and powder coated the centre caps does the lion has a tail or no tail the ute is a 12/1978
Strip them and try the molasses treatment, you will be surprised at the result
Molasses the stuff you eat

Yes, yummy!
Yep as Innuendo says the stuff you eat. Have a look at the thread "dash Cleaning", 10/1 ratio to water and the results on rust are to say the least amazing!!!!!

Molasses won't take the chrome off though will it? That will have to come off. Of you are re-chroming the whole wheel will end up chrome won't it? Then you will have all sorts of drama with paint not sticking.
I would forget about chrome. Paint them. Chrome wheels were always the cheap option anyway. They don't last.
Although the old 13" chromies on EH's etc looked good.
