i bought this wheels on eBay looking like this





now they look like this

 

original GM 15's with the azenis would look more dope imo. either than that, good job on the refinish

 

How did you refinish the wheels where they had been curbed, or did you just show us pics of non-curbed wheels?

 

Se ve super bien!! ese aro no se lo he probado a mi carro creo que se los voy a probar, pero no se si championship white o gray. Cuidalo pana porque en PR los Tipo R que quedan se pueden contar con una mano!!

Your car looks great I think that I'll try them in my R too. I like how the type R feel with 16" wheels.

 

no, all 4 wheels look equally bad ... a friend of mine did the job

 

Did he sandblast them till they were all flush then paint them? How did he fill the chips on the lip? Looks pretty good!

 

In for more info on how they were fixed. Looks great though

 

yes please have your buddy do a little write up on how to fix the rash. i am going to strip the black spray paint off my db8-R wheels and have them powder coated bronze but i will need to perform a little work on the massive curbage the jap man added. please hook us up with the info

 

just sand sand sand sand i help on that part then fill w/ some bondo very little needed .. repaint it twice and then a clear coat

here is another pic



the day i receive does rims from eBay they were horrible the center caps are new almost perfect, that was the only good thing lol, i don't understand how someone was able to destroy does wheels like that ...

 

what exactly are you using to sand? grinding wheel or what?

 

Bondo on a wheel? That doesn't sound like it will last.

 

I have heard of using bondo on numerous occasions from other people. Wheels look A++

 

x2

 

a lot of people an shops do it that way, its all over the internet its a steel metal feeler bondo

^You gotta love the Tim & Eric style video. LOL I love how his shirt has SRT4s all over it . . . . ROFL

 

nice wheels

 

Wheels look 100% better! You're deffinitly not lieing about your location, all my PR friends are all bondo happy, it's rediculous. It'll hold up for about a year, depending on abuse and how much you drive the car.

 

That was hilarious. It really did remind me of a Tim & Eric Awesome Show thing. Simply add "from Cinco" to it and it would be complete.

 

 

^^^^^ Ab-So-Lutely!

 

Wheels look great. My brake pad selection does not let me run a white rim. Its pretty amazing what thy can do with fixing these wheels anymore. I watch the wheel tech guys come on my lot and fix em all the time.

 

OP, where are you located? My JDM CW 16's look like someone decided to nibble away then take chunks out of the lips and I'm trying to find some reputable people to refinish all of my wheels lol.

I was thinking of sandblasting, technowelding, glaze puttying, then repainting the wheels myself, but I don't have that kind of time nowadays anymore .

 

Look a lot nicer then when you first got them thats for sure good job!

 

clean wheels

 

Sounded like Dr. Steve Brule when he said "Whack! Now whaddaya gonna do?"!
Good job bro.










Wheres my pep pep!
