DShox Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 hi, posted this in the chat section too! my 18" Volks need attention due to scuffs etc - do they need expensive machining??? Ta, D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 I have a piece of string. How long is it? It depends how bad the damage is. Usually you can cosmetically fix them, as long as they're not structurally damaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DShox Posted November 22, 2005 Author Share Posted November 22, 2005 erm looks like theres some superficial cracking where the wheel nuts are and looks like curb scuffs (indents) to the outer part. is it 6cm? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could do a lot worse than get lap tab to have a look at them, they are at gravelly hill just off junction 6 of the m6, they are good and are quick with the turnaround as well.

Chris Wilson Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 "*Cracking* where the wheel nuts are"? Jeez, sounds horrendous, dangerous and dire. You say cracking, is that what you really MEAN? If so, bin them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digsy Posted November 22, 2005 Share Posted November 22, 2005 Could just be the laquer cracking. Hopefully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did their 'alloy finder' and it just came back with Supra 3.0i R or something - obviously the Mkiii? I have no clue when it comes to offset ect. what do I need again?
