Yes, if you have dry skin and run a finger lightly across it there will be a scratch. It's amazing how soft aluminum is.
Here's a full frontal (and full rear) on the Carrera wheel. Mike's are indistinguishable from the originals and he can convert a plastic-rimmed wheel to teak. The spokes are somewhat hard to come by and expensive, but they can be refinished as well. He had one plated with nickel that was jaw dropping.
These are really large wheels (15 1/2" or 16", I think) when made to original specs, and most of us want smaller wheels. My wheel will be smaller - 14 1/2" or 15", I forget which.
