If they havea smooth finish already, this will work. Just remember keeping polished wheels looking good on a DD is a PITA.

I had a buddy polish his it took almost 8 hours per wheel to get it to look right. You can't do it by hand either you will need a high speed wheel at least. If you really want them polished call Glenn's Polishing in Tampa, he does great work.

Its not easy, and you will need to buy some things to do it.
