Title: recon wheels
Post by: Anonymous on September 12, 2005, 14:54
I've aquired a set of stock alloys for my girlfriends MR2.  I'm going to get them - or maybe her current ones reconditioned.

How sucessful does this tend to be?  Do aftermarket coatings last longer than OEM stuff?  Any advice on finish to go for? powder coat, laquer etc etc.  Any example pics of stock wheels refurbed for inspiration?

Cheers


David
