Well after having these for almost 5 months now, they're finally fully refinished and on the car. Big thanks to racecoated.com for the awesome powdercoat work. For some reason I didn't get any up close pics of the refinished wheels before putting them on the car, so next time I have them off I'll try to remember to snap a few pics. They came out MUCH better than I expected though... other than a VERY small amount of curbage still being visible if you're seriously studying the wheels (compared to tons of curbage before) they look like brand new wheels. Since winters getting close, I decided to go ahead and put some kumho asx all-seasons on these as well... the rear tires are a lot taller than I expected and almost make it look like a drag car, but these will function a lot better during the winter and I'll have my bridgestone re-01r back on as soon as it warms back up. Photobucket resized the pics too much, so if anyone wants bigger pics PM me and I'll see what I can do.

The refinishing process can be seen here

teaser of things to come


also went to my first track day at putnam park on friday. wow, everyone needs to go to a track day. i've done a decent amount of autocross, but this was just amazing.





Thanks for looking

 

Looks fantastic

 

looks good. and looks like you guys had fun!

 

Very nice combo. The way your S sits is so nasty. I love the beefy tires.

 

My favorite! The wheels look sick..... I bet you can't wait to get the RE-01r's on them.

Nice!

 

Tidy...

 

Awesome Jeff! Can't wait to check them out in person. Big ups to Steve at Racecoated

 

Looks good, just honestly a little odd. So rare to see people with aftermarket 16" wheels.

 

That's the beauty of them.....
