hoping to refurb these as i wouldnt mind having a 13inch sets of alloys for my for my car, as already got 14" and 15". i thought these would be good as theyre free, except buying some tyres (which i might already have here) and refurbing them my self.
ive really wanted to refurb a set of alloys as i think it would be very good satisfaction.
Also i like these alloys as theres no one else with them and they look extremely retro!

Best using photoshop. Can't wait until you've restored these. They look pretty 80s rally-esque

those are real tasty! They'll look the part when they're done! Theo, chuck some pics my way and I can try editing them for you, I know my way around photoshop, so I'll do me best. What is it you want done?

unfortunately thats the only pic i got at the moment.
but i was thinking graphite centre and the spokes and normal alloy silver on the lip.
get me?

sounds good but instead of the silver lip, do it polished alloy. leave the wheel where it is with the car jacked, get the rear wheel spinning and sand away
