Default Refurbed wheels

Finally got the tyres fitted to the recently powder coated wheels and got the center caps sprayed.

Really pleased with the overall result and don't think the black looks out of place on the fastest colour!

Oh yeah and a gratuitous shot of the new install....

No, If I had tried they would have ended up at a professional after I had messed them up, the powder coating was

Looks awesome! I do like black wheels, esecially nice with NIOP though.

Is there a thread on the sc install that I missed? Or has it always been sc in your ownership?

Nope I didn't do a thread on the install as I kept it a bit quiet and just turned up with it fitted over the weekend!

It seemed to impress everyone that had a pax ride at the Ricky run on Sunday. Hopefully Horsepower (Richard @ TTS) will give me a cut of any business he gets as a result.

Black wheels do look good on the Orange and Yellow cars. I'm not a fan on the other colours (maybe red) but it looks very good on your car Lloyd

Loving the power, did humiliate a TVR Griffith....
Not really in a rush for any more ponies, but would like the opportunity to meet up sometime and chat about a few things maybe go through setting up a laptop with the ECU, I will PM you later.
