Okay so a bit of a update.

Decided i wanted to get rid of the white wheels and go a bit more down the oem route and do them silver, so got some paint and cracked on. They were kerbed in a few places and scratched quite a bit so had to sand a fair bit down on some of the wheels.

Then primer, paint, clear coat and a good rubbing compound to get rid of some orange peel. Quite happy with how they came out. Need to see them in actual daylight as the kitchen (thats where the missus kicked me) light is a pissy energy saving lightbulbs and dont actually help much at all.

Finished product:

Also swapped my 30mm front spacers for some 20mm ones so should make a difference.

Im busy removing the shitty carbon fiber wrap off the grill and gunna remove the yellow laminex off the fogs over the weekend too.

As soon as i put the steelies on to paint these i just gave up hope lol. Steelies got mud everywhere off dog digging garden up around them, red paint off when i painted engine cover all over the tyres, rust and general **** all over them and 65 profile tyres lol.... Cant wait to feel the bumps of the road again lol
