[bernie1033 0]

picked up these rims a couple of weeks back

and now trying to find 2 centre caps as theyre

missing,the cap is a screw on type with a seperate cover

to cover the studs,if i cant source the proper caps

im going to get flat caps made,

anyway the specs are,,

3 piece splits,

16x8,

et 34(i think),

5x100 + 5x114.3,

made in japan by weds,

whats peoples opinions on these on the corrado?

 

 

any help appreciated.

Yeh I reckon they'd look pretty smart too :shades:

[bernie1033 0]

flat caps or hold out for the original?

maybe satin black centres with a gloss black lip

and polish all the studs as they seem to be s/s,

my rado is flash red.

you might never find originals, just get 4 the same :D

looks like im in for,

4x100 to 5x100 conversion,

sort some flat caps,

full strip down and refurb on wheels,

wonder what to do to the car after that :D

does it ever end :lol:

oooh i like the wheels. Think they would work quite well on a rado.

 

Where did you pick them up from?

[bernie1033 0]

was given them foc,

brother in law donated them

to the cause :D

Ah shweet! How you going to get them refurb'd? Stick to the original colour?

they look very similar to the lenso RS5 wheels, i wonder if those caps would fit?

they look very similar to the lenso RS5 wheels

 

Exactly my thought!

[bernie1033 0]

thinkin of black,satin centres with gloss lip,

all the studs on the wheel polished

can get four flat centres sorted so think

thats the look ill go with,

think they will suit the rado better

with the flat caps,

could colour code the lips with black centres?

had a bit of time to spare this evening

so decided to dismantle one of the wheels,

also got a price on getting these sandblasted

€100 for everything so all going well

they will be fully striped next week,

few more pics,,

 

 

now to source the parts for the 5x100 conversion.
