So, following on from back from enfield with krones, it was time to prepare the little fuckers for the car.
now they were bought on a whim, and so i didnt really have the funds for a 'proper' refurb, that is i couldnt afford to pay someone to do it... so this meant that i would have to get covered in crap for the next weeks worth of evenings.
a pleasure that soon turns to dispair, as ever the 1st wheel is fine, 2nd ok, 3rs a pain and 4th a frigging nightmare!
although on the face of it, not in bad shape...
they are not strictly what you want from a 'new' set of wheels...
with the valve area being the worst on all four wheels, and slight curbing on all four wheels...
so i got them all stripped down...
and set about polishing the lips up....
while there, the centres got a good seeing to...
it was then just a simple matter of polishing each of the 160 bolts by hand before i could re-assemble.
dont think the lips came out too bad considering i was only armed with a £20 ebay polishing kit and a powerdrill!
once the bolts were done it was time for a little sealent, and alot of bolt action, 40 a wheel!
after mocking them up on the car, im pretty excited to get my adaptors and actually get them on the thing!
PTIII comming up soon!

The common belief is http://www.coachoutletstore-onlines.com that if you buy from a Coach outlet http://www.coachoutletstore-onlines.com/coach-outlet-bags-coach-outlet-hand
bags-c-10_1/coach-outlet-handbags-small-purse-silver-p-304 then you do not have the cash to buy one http://www.coachoutletstore-onlines.com/coach-outlet-wallets-c-11/coach-out
let-wallets-grey-logo-yellow-p-356 of the pocketbooks from a conventional shop.
That thought www.saletoryburchshoes.net/tory-burch-flat-c-1 is far from reality. Why would you pay full http://www.saletoryburchshoes.net/tory-burch-wedges-c-6 price for a purse from a regular shop when you can http://www.saletoryburchshoes.net/tory-burch-heels-c-5 get it a fraction of the price at a Coach outlet?
