Refinished/rebuilt wheels =]
finally had my HRE 545 wheels redone thanks to VRWheels in LA, they did a great job and didnt keep me waiting long either!
new changes are:
-went from my previous black centers to brushed aluminum faces with polished windows.
-also had all four lips replaced, went one inch wider all around so the new sizes are 19x9.5 up front and 19x10.5 in the rear
-also finally painted my previously rusty brakes to a semi-gloss black ;D
much thanks to greg (and friends) for helping out tremendously with the whole project! =]
annnnd here are the pictures, enjoy!
