Touching up my jongbloed wheels.
Decided to sweep the dust off these and ready there for some 295 and 335 rubbers. Pulled them apart and painted the centers. Then scotch brite polished the dim halves because I hate shiny...then figured....why not black so I test sprayed one wheel. Now Im doing all 4s.
Comparison....
I like it...
Centers all nice and done. This is the finished set. The gold is a little lighter. I first sprayed the more bronze like tone for more depth.

17x10 and 17x12. They will not fit as is. They also don't fit my j55 brakes without a small spacer because of the nuts interfering
This is how it should look..kinda

Re: Touching up my jongbloed wheels.
I'll mount them in the next couple of weeks most likely. I have them all done, tires mounted.
Got a fender roller to maybe ease in flaring out this thing, It's going to take wheet metal work for sure to fit these. I may even have to cut away lower parts of the front fenders to clear the steering angle.
