Well, since I couldn't find any Work Equip 01s or 03s (for a decent price), I settled for some 002s.
Traded my Volks for these and $300. Old: Attachment 214943 Attachment 214944 Attachment 214945 New (crappy ass night pictures after they were on): http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v4...002640x480.jpg Attachment 214946 Attachment 214947 Had to raise it about 1/2" :td: Anyone wanna sell me some Yellows and GC's? :) |
Also...
Best way to roll the rear fenders?...sans using a fender roller, haha. |
Baseball bat. Maybe wrap it in a towel. Heat the fender lip with a heat gun without bubbling the paint. Get someone to push on the trunk or sit on it while you roll it back and forth. Do it slowly and it won't crack the paint, hopefully.

Those wheels look like they'll get curb rash if you look at them wrong.
Other than that though, nice! |
Yep, gonna have to be extra careful with these!
|
Sure I don't mind helping. I should be able to help whenever, just let me know.
Warning: Never done it personally, just read about it. What size tires are those? |
you traded volks for some sportmax's? WTF!?!?!?

...right? Plus I really needed the cash. ZOMG JDM VOLKS ARE WORTH $1000000000000000 |
I like the curb feelers.
Look hella sexy on the car. Would be even better with the fenders rolled. Post better pictures when it's all done. -Andrew |
Don't skip the heat gun!!! OMG!
I helped a friend once, WITH a roller (which was a HUGE help, made things come out nice) on a DSM. Didn't heat the first fender, paint cracked like mad. The rest came out good. Go slow, lots of passes. Maybe with miata light guage metal it will be easier - but easier to bust the paint, too. http://abefm.smugmug.com/gallery/1199928#56131184 OMG, why I posted pics of this, I'll never know. But notice the missing paint on the driver's front.... |
Nope I don't own a heatgun. Depending on where you're at now. Look up harbor freight. Pretty sure they have a store around nashville or Mt Juliet. Something like that anyway. I'm sure the gun wouldn't be more than $20.
|
wow you must rub when you sit in the car with that 0 offset, i like the look, but wouldnt want to have to deal with rubbing issues personally.
|
Those volks were fucking ugly as hell....-1 for blue wheels on a red car...
I'd support the trade |

I liked the blue. At least it's a little different

Yeah the blue wasn't doing it for me, but I did like the style of the wheels. The offset was too high anyway.

Nice. Now sell them and get yourself a set of 6ULs. ;)
