Chuffed with how these wheels turned out...

[Sylux]

I realise gloss black is not to everyone's taste...but I'm well chuffed the way they've turned out.

Under £40 per wheel (shot-blasted, prepped, powder-coated and lacquered). I was going to just get them shot-blasted and then spray myself. But all the mess and material costs wasn't going to be worth it when I could have them properly powder-coated and lacquered.

What a shame I didn't get a close-up before pic as they were surface wrecked. But not damaged in any way.

These are to have my road tyres put back on and the steelies will have the soon-to-be off-road ones.

Nice. Very nice. Was considering this myself but someone bought the Surf.

[KERRSURF]

Nice job.

I just need to find some 110mm (or thereabouts) center caps that aren't those large push-throughs.

I like the push-throughs, don't get me wrong, but I'd like some options.

If I don't find any I'll just buy brand new ones, the same, and have them done gloss black, too. £5 to do and I'd buy new from RoughTrax as the current ones have a few dints.

Black bolts aren't cheap...but they'll complete the look I'm after.

[KERRSURF]

I don't like those push through, better with a nice set of Warn hubs fitted IMHO.

[KERRSURF]

Easy job to fit, 20 mins a side. Last a lifetime if given a wee clean and service after playing in the mud.

[Sylux]

Pfft...not even a fecking link



Show me the money!

I like them a lot, btw. It would be great to have hubs that stayed there and suited both sets of wheels.

[KERRSURF]

The hubs do stay there. Wheel passes over them.

£150 odds for a set.

check with the shop to make sure you are getting the right ones sent over.

Yeh, I know...that's why I said it would be great etc etc

But no...£100s on hubs isn't an option right now.

Worth a thought for the future.

ps. Do you have them on all 4 corners?

I know they should be for the front only...but you offered them as a solution to all 4 wheels.

Do you get matching back ones which are just, well...dummies etc?

[KERRSURF]

Nah. Just paint the centres on the back.

Aye he glued them on

[Sylux]

108mm (and similar) search is pretty much resulting in the ones I already have.

Surprised there isn't more options out there.

Other than unrelated hubs at £100+

[Karma Supra]

They look spot on... what size are they?
