Thread: wheel builds?

Didnt know where else to post this and there isnt a specific section. But is there any guys out there building/refinishing any wheels? if so lets see some pics, tips/tricks. Im not talking about spray painting your rotas either.

get yourself a cheap office type chair, then get spare hub/spindle

then figure a way to fuse/mate the 2 together. then you can bolt a wheel on & be able to spin it & do all kinds of stuff..

in terms of repaing scrapes & gouges it depends on the finish your going with. I have see people use JB weld, i have seen people use a body filler meant for metal, i have seen people use the liquid metal(2 part epoxy type setup stuff)

stripping old paint, aircraft stripper works prettty good.

I should have a thread up detailing a whole R&I proceess on a set of wheels & 1 of them has a huge chunk missing from it

im in the process of redoing these. OZ Pegasus 17x9/10+35, im waiting on parts from memoryfab.

and the bolts have been sitting in coke for about a month now. alot cleaner than they were before.
