Kerbed your 313 alloy... I did one of my 19" 313's yesterday.
Bloody annoying isn't it!
What did you seal them with? I have Jetseal 109 + FK1000p on mine.

All of mine are kerbed unfortunately, not by me but the previous owner. I will probably get them refurbed some time soon. Didnt realise until I took them off today that they are made by BBS. They were on there when I bought it. That will explain why they are so expensive

Mine needs a bloody good clean.
It's covered in tar, dirt, sticker sticky stuff.
The carbon fibres faded, I think waters got into it.
The Allys bubbled in places, the fibreglass has a few spider cracks, and it needs a good going over with a touch up pen.
Never been polished in it's life, but that could be because I don't own any.
I did buy a clay bar once, never really knew what it was all about and didn't get far with it.
Always been tempted to buy a machine polisher and maybe make it shine.
Any takers!
Oh and the wheels are covered in brake dust, can't seem to get it off. Also the garage fitting the weights wrong and they got ripped off. Need a refurb me thinks.
As you were.

I tried to do this. Last day before the hosepipe ban, Mum's done last week, mine, my mates MINI and Dad's needed doing. We got them clean, but not without hassle from the rain, in the end we just finished as it went dark and the heavens opened. The MINI came with a cleaning kit so finally managed to get right into the wheels on all three, got them aas clean as possible, then gave the 207 a 'Quickwax' and glass polish the next morning once it had dried. At some point I will properly wax it again and I will get the wheels off and do them, as it is at the moment, I need more microfibre cloths! Those wheels must look fantastic all cleaned up inside, I'd imagine they're still fairly doable whilst on the car with such thin spokes, I had what must have been barely a week old E93 next to me in town the other day with those wheels, they look the dogs.   Didn't do too bad of a job considering...
