Thread: painting wheels: what colour?

Thanks - that's what I want to hear !

Only problem is they are /still/ sitting on shelf at (insert name of only place that does wheel mods in sydney).

These wretched coopers are disintegrating but I don't want to get my new BFG's until I've got the new rims finished! (can't fit 255/85 on 5.5 rims )

G'day Flagg,

I know the place you're talking about. How much did they charge to get the rims offset (if you don't mind me asking)? Why did you choose to offset disco rims over purchasing a set of brand new sunraysias (which i'm guessing would be the same price if not cheaper)? Are the disco wheels stronger than the sunraysias?

Cheers,

Edward

Hi Edward

$75. To be honest, I just prefer the look of the disco to the sunnys. If I had thought about it more I would have got some ZU ones from rovacraft but that is a big investment up front (I'm getting 6 done)
