Title: Today's scrapyard bargain........................
Post by: illumin on 12 September 2005, 12:33
Spending too much time at the scrapyard lately I reckon, but got a bargain today.........A set of Pirelli P slots, complete with Pirelli P600s (good tread all round too) for £40. Bargain I thought!  :grin: Just gotta give them a clean and/or a lick of paint then I can replace the Driver steels I have been rolling on lately.......... :grin: :grin:

You can do them yourself, all you need is a polishing kit for an electric drill.

Cleaned up quite nice after all, so no need for the Hammerite just yet. Have got a "Dremel" type tool, but haven't got the time really. They look quite nice as they are, except for a couple of kerb marks............Keeping my fingers crossed that they aren't corroded, and leak air constantly like the last set of old VW alloys I bought....................  :grin: :grin:
