WTF? want to find

Post by Money pit Beretta »

Yes, also the other WTF. I came out today and found that the cap was gone off my passenger wheel. If anyone has one or finds one at the JY please get back to me ASAP.

I don't know why I didn't think to look there. I went to AR's site and then found a dealer close to me and called them. They never got back to me. Thank you very much 3X00!
The wheels are not in good shape and look kind of bad. They really look bad without the caps, oh and it's a pride thing.

Oh, tell me about it. The wheels look like crap as you can see. That place near me called me back today and said that they can get one. I'll be getting one from them. Thanks again for that link 3X00. When I get the new one on I'll take a pic of it so we can all :ROFL: . Yes, I only bought one. I guess I could ruff the new one up a little. :D

That wouldn't be a tough wheel(s) to refinish.

Hell I did a set of crosslaced and yours would be EASY compared to them.

Get to work!

Did you use some sort of coating? I would like to have some 16's because the price of 15 inch tires is getting high. I would like these to look a little better though.

There are pics of my crosslaced when they were done a couple years ago, or I can e-mail it to you.

I did them WITH THE TIRES ON, as they sat over my luandry tubs just perfect.

Started very course but you don't need to.

Start with 180 and see if that will get all the pit marks out. If not rub harder!! LOL!!

From there it is theraputical Buddy!

Use a sanding block and just keep going higher.

I went 180/220/360 THEN 400 wet/600 wet/1000 wet. (Kurt loves 2000 wet but I think it's not required for wheels)

You should be able to do a wheel a night if you are in a hurry. I spent about three weeks on mine. Lots of beer and just "chillin" and sanding away.

A wheel with tire sits nicely on my laundry tub and is rather easy to work on.

You just have to not be in a big hurry and get all the imperfections before you move on to the next finer grit.

Depends what you time is worth. I suppose.
