KyleR Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 255 and 285 it is! If you lower the car you may need to roll the arches a bit more than normal running 285 rears. No big deal, though Can't wait to see them on Quote
Jetpilot Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Interesting...my Volks gtc,s cannot be refurbed as the rims are anodised.Only option is to spray so I,m really looking after these. Unless anyone knows a way to re polish the rims. Not sure who told you that buddy, Its certainly not true. Gtc's would be a doddle to refurbish. Take the centres out, take the barrels to an electroplater and they will remove the anodising, then get the lips polished. If you dont want to look after the polished lips when done, get them laquered. Quote
mrt Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Thanks jetpilot.was told they couldn't be done by a well known performance company up. Will check into it. Quote
Jetpilot Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 Thanks jetpilot.was told they couldn't be done by a well known performance company up. Will check into it. No problem, i have done quite a few sets, Volks, Works, Weds etc You could even remove the anodising yourself with a bit of caustic soda, we used to do it years ago on anodised bmx parts, but trust it to some experts and you will be in good hands. If you need anything else pm me. Quote
HoundDog Posted February 25, 2015 Posted February 25, 2015 They will look fantastic on your car when done. 1 Quote
Jay.1r Posted February 26, 2015 Posted February 26, 2015 anyone point me in the right direction for a good refurb company in north wales? wheels only require polishing/painting, not a mark on them, the wheel restorer quote close to 800 for it! Quote
Jetpilot Posted February 28, 2015 Posted February 28, 2015 Tbh, to split them down, polish lips, spray/powdercoat centres its not a 5 min job, £800 is a little steep though, min of £100 a wheel imho. Quote
