they are split rims. ive a version of these oz's for my rears with larger centre. the time will be taking the nuts off! i would think if you took the time to split them apart yourself and got a company to sandblast them you wouldn't spend a huge amount.

 

they are two piece.

 

get a photo of the rear of the wheels to show where they come apart better.

Size is 17.

 

No idea what split rims are, or 2 - 3 piece ?

 

Mine are 3 piece, heres a pic of them taken apart.

 

If yours are 2 piece then just the center piece unbolts from the rim

 

Once their split you would get them chemically stripped in phosphoric acid, then

powdercoat or paint the center, you can powdercoat or paint the rim as well or have it

polished back to how it was originally.
