I'm getting a set of Fuchs for my car tonight. I'm goint to hit them with some 1000 grit sandpaper, and I'm going to hit the 4 raised surfaces and the outer ring with a dremel and some polish.
I found this INCREDIBLE polish about 2 years ago called "Mr. Metal", but it no longer exists.... figures. Any suggestions on a REALLY good metal polish that I can buy at a local auto parts store??? |

That was my old car that I sold this spring, and those tires were pretty old (car was in storage since 93) I did auto x them once and I did not notice a lot of flex, but the rubber was hard and they did slide around pretty good, they didn't even squeal! Car handled great though but it had front sway and 180 springs in the back. Ferg.
