Black wheels

[Leatherman]

I have had a set of wheels powdercoated in black but have not yet fitted them as waiting for a set of Tom's big brakes with red covers which will show them off well. I am curious to see what they will look like so did a search of the VCA site and came up with the exact same wheels.



What do we think ??

We think that picture is too small to see properly... But having seen them before, they will look great!

I went with the Doc's recommendation and used Pristine Wheels in Luton because they were the only people who could guarantee to remove the chrome properly. £60 per wheel plus vat and they have done a fantastic job. They will arrange collection and delivery back. Thanks again Baz

[GTSDave]

Yep! That's going to look great! I'll buy them back when you're bored of them...

I am pretty sure they dont re chrome. Customchrome at Nuneaton are very good though.

custom chrome is around the corner from me, i last popped in to drop off Fishboys gas cap when he had it polished up

[neilsfishing]

I like them

Look great in black, I've always been a fan of black wheels. Had a set powder coated last year, took the lacquer off with paint stripper. Sometimes a pin-stripe can look good around the groove in the rim edge, or a good vinyl red stripe if you wanted to check out the look without being permanent.

Nice Tony, very nice.
All you need now is a blue respray and 2 white stripes.

Ohhh yehhh - the joke's on me!
NOT YOUR CAR - in that case "black on red looks naff!"
In fact, "RED looks naff."
How about a blue respray with white stripes.
Or maybe even something completely different ... gotta be better than RED hasn't it.
