JoN_WeStOn Posted August 15, 2007 Share Posted August 15, 2007 As in the title, they were sprayed once upon a time but are flaking off, they are curbed round the rim, but i've recently refurbed the alloys on my car (i'd never done it before) and had them powdercoated for £50 (18's) and they look brand new so i'd recommend doing that and you'll have some superb looking rims for next to nothing ,205/40/17 tyres x 4 for less than £200 and you'll have a really nice package for £250 - Half the price of another package deal for wheels that are as nice as these. ...2 tyres are illegal, 2 are just legal and i need some proper tyres to get the car back on the road again. If you want to see the job i made of mine doing it as a first timer to prove it can be done just ask. PICS of the alloys: I'll get some close ups of the curbing, its all the way around the rim of it but i don't think theres any damage to the rest of the wheels 40grit sandpaper makes light work of the edge, then just go up to 80, 120, 400,800 wash it down and get them powdercoated its easy especially witha sander! I'm in leicestershire, near M1 J23 by the way. PM me for a quicker Response Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
