Wheel refurb

[gsx600]

Well now had to Rims polished and painted the centres silver again instead of black / red

But what do you seal them with ? Originally they had some sort of black solid bead, probably not mastic

Mock up of wheel with bolts in place (hex button head)



Whats anyone reckon they'd be worth if I sold 4 of them (16 x 9)

That looks superb.

Split them myself (borrowed tool)

sent the rims to be polished (£20 each)

drilled to 8 mm bolt hole (£10)

8 mm bolts x 30 per wheel

Did I win?

P.S. Martin, saw your wheels at Renowheel on Saturday, they look superb.

That makes 4 !

Thought the Seac had the fiddly type wheels on it ?

[Waynester]

Ahem...not to jump any queues here Paul... Have been waiting for said wheels since 1846

I'll buy the ones fitted, could exchange for a certain set of lovely 15's with almost new Toyo's??


Don't show me the tree, then deny me the fruit!

Hi Guys, just trying to get an idea of what they might be worth IF I sold them

At the momment they would make a superb coffee table in the living room with a sheet of glass over them

Hi Paul

I paid £600 for 4 rims in need of a refurb.

The refurb works out at around £180ish a corner, then decent rubber.

Quite expensive wheels overall and i must admit would seem expensive to any prospective buyer but the reality is these are not readily available wheels with all the woek neede done.

The maths for my wheels which i am keeping will be around £1800 and that is cost not resale.

£150 each, needing refurb, without tyres seems to be the going rate this year.

It has these.....



These would also look good refurbished, but also like the 400SE type. Decisions, Decisions.....
