Check out my new wheels for my '69 Turbo Type-4 912 Project. I will be running a set of Falken 205/40/16's on these bad boys.

That's exactly the finish I told Al to put on my 16's yesterday.

Sans kid...

If those wheels are 16's then that makes the little guy about a 22. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

Did you get the wheels refinished like that or did you buy them that way? I have 4 16x7 that I want to get done that way, I called wheel enhancement and they want $185 a wheel.

FYI, the term 'Dub' refers to wheels 20" or larger (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

Great looking wheels, I am always debating on doing the polished/painted look on mine.

Cool thanks! I knew wheel enhancement is pretty expensive.

I wish people would quit using the word "dub" to mean wheels (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/mad.gif) I thought I was going to be looking at Vee-DUBS (Volkswagens) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif)

What is the up keep needed to maintain that polish. I was thinking about having it clear coated by Al, but I have heard the shine is not the same. I dont want to constantly polish them to maintain that shine.
