Title: Opinions please
Post by: laydon on 13 April 2005, 17:12
Just got my rm's back from refurbishing the centres as you can see are a different shade. I can send the centres off to be matched, just looking for a second opinion. They are all the same colour just the light changed as I was taking the pictures

is that 117 for all 4??

i got mine done there but spray got into the threads of the bolt holes for the outer rim, and i had to go round every hole and basically rethread them, which was the biggest ballix ever!!

Yes that was for all 4. I can't say for certain that all holes are clear but I did try quite a few.

The company who refurbed my wheels are called Lap-Tap.  I have just asked them how much to spray the centres, free of charge was the answer  :smiley: They have been very helpful and as you can see the wheels look good I'd use them again.
