Kim1978 Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 I got my TTE wheels a while back but I got a bit surprise because they look much brighter than the ones I have seen on this forum. And the center piece is different is as well. Mine looks like these But I wanted to have the darker colour like the ones fron Burna and Michael. Or maybe my eyes are just f*cked up....I'm getting old now Anyone know the colour code or if they are different? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewOW Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 I think ours are all diamond cut, whereas those have a painted finish. Maybe they've been refurbished, but I have seen some like yours before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Have to say it but the diamond cut version of this wheel is the daddy! The other version just doesnt look half as good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

4packet Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Its not a paint finish. They machine the wheel back and apply clear lacquer. The inner part of the wheel is a dark grey. I had mine refurbed and just used a standard dark grey that Pristine had. They look much better but the finish does have corrosion issues.

michael Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Closer shot of one of mine that shows the diamond finish - it's under lots of coats of clear and really comes alive in the sun. Lots of very straight angles to throw the light off like a CD. http://www.megaboost.co.uk/supra/mine/wheels/tte-wheels-04.JPG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially when you catch it in the light of street lamps and other cars at night. It is easily the best finish of any of the Supra's wheels IMO.
