Good info Joe.

I have a couple of NOS black ten holes. I will get a pic up later this evening when I get home.

Wheel weights on the face... Nice to know.

Default Off to the shop

I decided that my wheels needed some cleaning up. So I dropped them off at a local collision shop for them to sand blast them. I decided to have the shop also paint the wheels. The picture is of all the wheels in the bed of my truck going to the shop.

Are they going to powder coat or paint them?? I am curious will they be gloss blck or like a satin finish. I just had the rear main and trans done on mine and I am slowly working towards the outside of the car... Seats and headliner are next....

They are going to be painted, semi-gloss black. To powder coat them was going to be too much, $100/wheel.

Brought the freshly painted wheels home this morning. They look great! Four of these wheels weren't in the greatest shape, due to them running in countless Michigan winters I guess. The black paint seems to cover up the flaws.
