Prepping my LMGTs for winter.

[HEADPHONES]

Seeing as I had the afternoon off all to myself I thought I'd prep my rims for the winter

So I jacked up the car.

Nismos off.

OEM Tourings on.

Washed rims.

Dried.

Fallout remover (IronX)

Rinsed

Tar remover (ValetPro)

Wash and rinse.

Clay.

Wash and rinse.

Dried with a towel and put in the kitchen awaiting bone dryness.

Must be getting old as I found it a hard slog in today's heat.

Then off out for drinks with the lads.

Just come back and given them an IPA wipe down.

Not looking too bad after being run daily for 10 years

Off to bed now.

Will coat them with Gtechniq C5 in the morning

Looking good, my favourite wheels.

Just done the exact process with basically same stuff as you got my c5 on just now haha but found I screw in my rear tyre

Prepping for winter in August??

Wife and kids away for a couple days.

An opportunity like this is very rare.

She'd not be best pleased having wheels take up the kitchen floor!

Consider it a blessing.

Better than a blow out or wrecked wheel.

Hopefully it's repairable and won't cost too much to fix

Aren’t you a bit premature. It’s the height of summer.

Seems a bit early but great to see such lovely wheels being pampered.

[PPod]

Can never be too early when using c5 lasts months even years to be honest haha

[Ridz]

Great set of wheels!

[The Big Miester]

Lovely set of wheels I really like a set for my Zed,such a great looking alloy on the Zed

Oriiginals as per OP VERY Expensive. Many run the ROTA Gtr replicas which are very good. Had a set on my old 350z.
