as above but will need to be re-finnished. should i get them painted or powder coated ? powder coating seems to be double the price of painting! does anyone know what the finnish is the way they are now? as for what colour to pick, im going to stay with gold, have white on the car just now...

dam, i cant believe how light these things are.. hmm, will i feel any difference in driving at all with these on ?

Don't powder coat them.

I think they look nice in the colour that they are already?

I know which one I'd rather have!

I thought you needed them refurbing and that's why you were repainting. You don't like the colour as is? I quite like it too

I agree , keep them as they are - look nice !

craigo

honestly they need re-painting guys, if you can zoom in on pics you can see

anyone know if these will feel any different when driving ? un-sprung weight etc...

Mine felt different when I went from 17" speedline GT1's to a set of 17" Advan RG's. To me it felt like re-fitting the original 16" wheels and tyres.
Thats a good thing

there a bit to scruffy looking though

do you know what paint code these need to be done in ?

craigo

iTrader: (1)

just spoke to mags for some info... (very helpful guy )

gulp...... i never realised the price of these wheels would be £2400 to replace

mags, i managed to track down a laser paint code reader in brighton. waiting to hear back from them if indeed it will read wheel paint as seems it is different to body paint.

are you keeping them the same colour or repainting them different?
nice wheels btw.

craigo

iTrader: (1)

im trying to find the exact colour as these wheels are quite rare...

you like them

iTrader: (52)

There isn't a colour code that i know of craig but a suitable colour could be found within the chips of all colour schemes mate,I could easily find one and paint them to look exactly as they are now as could any good bodyshop

craigo

iTrader: (1)

so you would need to see them to get the correct colour match ?

these wheels have hardly any paint on them at all, a very very light dusting is all that is needed.

prodriverules

iTrader: (52)

Yes I would need to see them,you could even get a rattle can made up in the picked colour if needed mate

craigo

iTrader: (1)

thats what im looking for i think, rattle can, light dusting to keep the matt look.
guess i ll need to post you a wheel

dont know anyone around here i can trust to get the match right...

Paint shops will make up a rattle can for you with a paint of your chosing. Just need the code
