I just put some on mine, the polish job is SUPER lame. Luckily I do aluminum polishing cause they need to be redone, BADLY. I should have went with chrome....

It should be for sure! I'll stuff a crank in it later and put some 94's in it with a little bit bigger cam. |

| Jay, you mind telling us how you lowered your car? It's got the perfect stance. Not too low where your scraping, just right! |

I have these too and agree with the polish job, it's crap. You really can't even make it better without bringing in some heavy duty cures (sanding). But all said, I do like them and if I could afford or knew where to take them to have them professional polished, I would.

Jump on the highway and go find your closest local truck stop where they wash trucks and detail them as well as gas up stay the night etc etc. They also polish gas tanks exhaust systems and everything else you can think of. A buddy of mine got some VW wheels polished for 15 bucks a wheel about 3 years ago at the local truck stop.

|
|
has anyone ordered those 17" Rader wheels from GR Wheels on the web?
The site looks dodgy. No phone number.
Info on the site looks like a Ransom note
I really like those dull finish 17" wheels but dont know where to get them from.....appreciate if someone knows about GR wheels and if they are legit
