so i've been working on one of the LMs and here is the progress

after sanding it with 180 grit, 240 grit, 600 grit and 1200 grit they came up pretty good, although they look brushed, coz i didn't polish them.

looking good man, are you going all the way up to 2000grit?

[180roman]

i probably won't be doing any more sanding on the LMs, i'll be giving them to someone else to sand and polish because with the rate of time i spend on those wheels, i won't have them ready by SW Melbourne meet.

That one wheel alone took me over 10 hrs of work

so i've currently taken on another project

had some BBS RS 16x8.5 +14 arive from Japan 2 weeks ago, so i went to work on these

Bolts removed


The 68 nuts and bolts + 2 stem valaves


one of the nuts will definitly need replacing as i was lucky to just be able to unscrew it, it just kept slipping off and rounding as it was badly rusted

BBS Stack


I felt hungry today and decided to cook up some wheels




The weapons of choice for splitting wheels

Ta-da!!!

Got Dish?

bought some BC coilovers 2 weeks ago and fitted them last week

here is how it sits now



the rest will be unveiled at the Melbourne SW Meet and Greet once i get the guards rolled, fit new wheels and drop it some more

[Oxer]

Looking good dude...

dropped the front and rear another 20mm

had an alignment done with the LMs on the car and my fucking bent subframe has fucked shit up

need a new subframe as right now it makes 1 wheel sit nice, and the other has the rim about 5-10mm more sunken
