Refurbishing wheel centres
#22
Thank you for the offer I'll be running winter wheels this year so the 17s will be off for a tidyup which also means the centres will get done too.
Will have a think about what to do

Pictures of my wheels as requested, apologies for the crap quality took them very quickly as i did it, was in a rush to head off up to coventry at the time.
They are OZ Racing SuperLeggeras in 18" wheel 9" wide at the rear and 8" wide at the front, rear offset is 55 i think, and front is 45.
the ride height has settled a lot after the pics, those are when it just came off the jack.
wheels are also a bit curbed, but they were second hand and i will be sorting that soon.
Rear tyre size difference going from 225 to 255
16" to 18"
Fronts changing from 205 to 225
Running pretty flush; maybe not quiet hellaflush, if i was really bothered i might stick a 3mm spacer on the rear, but to be honest, i'm quiet happy.
Now the plan was to refub these in gold in the spring, but i'm actually liking the black look alot. any comments welcome

I wouldnt space that out at all it's perfect where it is - ride height looks a little high though? *edit* just seen comment re: ride height
Perfect as is - best thing with gloss black powdercoat is shiny for shows and matt black the rest of the time

I'm going to say Gold / Bronze if you're going to refurb them
