Took the tyres off of the Force wheels. I will be taking the centres out to give everything a good clean up.

The wheels were all taken apart today and given a good scrub. I started on polishing the outer and inner halves. Still have some work to do.

Pity about the scuffs from the wheel nuts being put in :

Started to rain while I was working as well :

A little ticked off that the rear windscreen leaks . . .
 
Also, since one of the D1 wheels needed a leak fix, I thought I should fit it up. This was my original idea - D1 wheels with Grp2 narrows :

You can't just post a pic of one wheel on the car. Fit all four and take some pictures :)

Post some pics of that lovely blue clubby as well. It'll be a nice intro for the eventual build thread.

One wheel done - three to go. This is as good as I can get them by hand. I moved the centre around after this pic so that the valve lines up with a blank spoke :

I absolutely love these wheels. They'll look amazing when they're all shiny.

Well, all four wheels are now polished and assembled. I just need to get the bolts torqued up to spec and I'm sorted. I did, however,manage to snap the head off of one bolt - I didn't put it under much strain, so I think it was weak from the beginning (didn't have a problem with any of the other ones) :

On a side note, I just managed to miss a big hailstorm while working on the car today. Oh, and I also stripped the window winder handle, so I need another one of those . . .
