I'm about to throw a set of these on my EK sedan...

Just need some work done to them and some tyres. The guy who had them before me did a poor DIY black paint job to the centre part and lost half the centrecaps and rings! Not to mention he painted over the sticker on the spokes!

Need to strip them back and polish up the studs and outer rim...

Anyone know of a place or a set of centrecaps or stickers for them?



These are aren't mine... just putting a closer pic up of a set to get the point across!

BTW- ant$missShift, your ride is sick! What size are those?

What size tyre you running on them? I reckon if you lowered your ride a little more they'd look even better. Its hard with some wheels to get the right size look. Some look bigger or smaller than what they are! People mistake my Fat 5's for 16's!

Have you had to clean up your wheels much? I'm hand polishing up the outer dish part now...

Yea.. a lot of wheels that have polish lip and the 2 piece design look smaller then they really are for some reason. they have 205 50 15s on them.. i would lower is a lil more but its my daily and just the right ride height where it doesn't look Horrible but i can still do what i got to do in it without worrying about scraping on **** ect..

they do suck to clean. i had hit mine up with a lil mothers..

Your car looks sick on them. good luck on the center cap hunt. im thinking the centers for the AVs?? and the other volks in this style pretty much have the same center caps.. i could be wrong. but im pretty sure. might make your hunt a lil easier

all in all i cant complain i got them for 300$ near complete.

I'd like to see some more pics, but they look pretty good to me and for a daily driver the car looks great.
