$5 Wheel mod
« on: Jul 09, 2004, 06:34:30 PM »
My Old Aluminum Modular wheels are oxidized and ugly so I bought some wheel paint.  You know what?

It worked!!! my wheels look about $5 better. :thumbs:

you can acid wash aluminum wheels for pretty cheap too, but the get a bit of a white look as apposed to a high polish but you wash it on and wash it off. We used this stuff at the trailor place I use to work to wash horse trailers

The only reason for me getting diferent rims (besides looks) is because the fact. ones were all corroded they told me that the Polishers would help it out but i dint notice anything so I just bought new wheels they were cheap to I got them with wheel locks and hubs for 300 all 4 :thumbs:
