spring clean of the turbines!

[ljohny]

as its been nice weather today i thought it'd be a good idea to take the wheels off and give 'em a bloody good clean! here's the results.
before

after with added carbon!


thoughts?

Remove the carbon cover look's kinda outa place, rather Clean though i need to give mine a proper clean covered in break dust

 

[ljohny]

they are an absolute t**t for collecting brake dust! and ill see what the carbon covers look like when its back on the car as ive only done one atm, kinda need them just to cover up the rusty wheel bolts

they are an absolute t**t for collecting brake dust!

What have you protected them with then...?

 

[VeinAST]

Red is just wrong.

 

[ljohny]

bucket loads of auto glym alloy wheel seal. is there a better product? if so i need some!

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

The stuff in a spray can ?! :S

Gteqniq C5 is the best. End of.

There's plenty of wipe on/wipe off wheel sealants out there.. check out the detailing section !

+1 for Gteqniq C5
and leave that carbon off looks way better without it

 

[ljohny]

got them back on the car today, not cant make my mind up if i want to keep the center caps on or not.

 

[TheEvilGiraffe]

:dead:

It's a no from me.

Leave the covers off. They look too soft with them on IMHO.

Makes your car look like a ladybird.

Keep them as they were without the caps, or better yet, keep the caps off and spray them silver?

 

[Duffman_172]

Not a fan if I'm honest, look abit out of place!

centre caps should match the rest of the wheel, and only colour on the fins / vents.

the spray on AG wheel seal doesn't last more than a few weeks. for cheap and cheerful look for FK1000 or do it properly with C5
