WINKJ Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Hi guys. The weights on my alloys are starting to rust. No doubt it's due to the salt everywhere on the roads. I was thinking of removing the alloys, wrapping them up and spraying the weights whilst still attached to the alloy. Would this be ok do you think as a solution? Apart from one problem is that you don't get a bl00dy car jack with the nismo!!!! James Quote
Paddy78 Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Lack of jack aside, I see no reason why you couldn't paint them. I doubt a few layers of paint would unbalance anything. Could the solvent in the paint unglue them potentially... I doubt it though? 1 Quote
KyleR Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 I fear that a bit of rust on your weights is a real non problem. No one will ever notice them apart from you, but if it really bothers you that much, I'm sure a tyre fitter would put new ones on for a tenner. Quote

GMballistic Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 Get a paintbrush, and paint them through the spokes. ^^This and use masking tape around the weights if you're worried about getting paint on the alloy. Quote
