Andy_s-TT-Supra Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I've recently purchased these wheels which are in ok condition but some of the centres aren't in the best condition and the polished rims need to be refinished. I like the look of the wheels which is why I got them but considering a decent refurb will likely be £400 plus are these wheels going to be worth it if done properly?

Andy_s-TT-Supra Posted October 28, 2015 Author Share Posted October 28, 2015 I had something like this in mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 They were a popular set of sets and I would like to say although they aren't in HUGE demand, they are certainly a nice set of wheels which suit the Supra, so IMO yes it will be worth.

Andy_s-TT-Supra Posted October 28, 2015 Author Share Posted October 28, 2015 I don't plan on any body mods so I thought the wheels will be in keeping with the age and design of the car. Seeing as the cars silver I'm not sure what colour to do the centres Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SupraP-Z Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Ive got a set of veilside andrews on mine too, took me a while to get used to, but i really like them now. Its fully polished look all the way for me, i think they just look stunning on whatever colour when polished Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hammer Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Lovely set of wheels that suit the age of the car. Well worth having them done up imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy_s-TT-Supra Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 Red suits the car! I wouldn't mind doing the centres in a black chrome effect with a polished rim and new gold bolts all round. Is there any possibility when split that the wheels won't seal properly again? Does anyone know of any good wheel refurb companies in the southwest that would be able to do all the work themselves rather the. Split and take to different places?

nihontoman Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 lovely wheels. really like the classic looks. I say restore them. as for the color for center sections, a good old gold could do the trick. if not, black or white might also be an option. edit: also, you should always use some kind of sealant for wheels like these.

Andy_s-TT-Supra Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 I thought It's generally not possible to re-diamond cut the centres if they corrode as it involves taking more material off the rim. I may be wrong! Lovely pics and they do suit the supra a lot. Drift_bear - do you have yours lowered? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
