Alright. Any idea of what it would take, or cost to have them all striped down to silver? And I assume the one was just curbed, is the extent of the damage just the chipping on the lip?
You'd have to have them sand blasted. not sure how much that costs. The silver one is factory painted silver. The chromed ones, if sandblasted will be bare aluminum, so it won't look the same as the silver one. plus you'd want some kind of paint or clear coat on the wheels after it's sandblasted

I have no idea what sandblasting cost, should not be much though. Once sandblasted you will be left with a mat finish which you could then apply clear or paint/pc any color you want.
The last (3rd) picture shows the damage on that rim, the lip was hit somehow and its chipped, NONE are bent or cracked! The 2nd picture shows some rash which is not bad @ all almost looks like it was milled.
If I where to Keep them I would fix the lip on that 1 rim, then hand sand all the rims and paint them.
