Don't refinish them, you're way better off selling them and buying another set IMO. I would personally get 17x9 all around or go for a +50ish offset 17x10 back and 17x9 front. After driving with the 9/10 setup with your exact tire setup, I'm convinced I get more precise steering feedback from the sidewall stretch (not homo hellaflush stretch, useful for suspension feel stretch)

I'm honestly fine with the wheel/tire sizes IMO, I'm trying to stay away from rolling the fenders and such.
