hey mate, what did you do to make these wheels polish up so well? They look like new!
Yeah mine came from Newcastle and the salt air has rusted just about everything in the engine bay and under carriage.
I'd say don't go quads personally I'm not a fan I love the flat front with square headlights it looks tough me thinks.

just plain old autosol man! can get it at supercheap etc and then just rubbed for a long long time
im going to take the tyres off and grind back the small bits of gutter rash and re-polish them.. im not quite happy with them just yet
Sorry if I steal your thread for a second but I just polished up some hot wires I found the easiest way is to buy a polishing pad that goes on your drill and a stick of cutting compound see left of wheel on the drill and cream stick.
Polish it with the drill then once its all shiny then use auto sol.
Will be much quicker.
This was while I was doing them not finished.
Also here's a link to a good guide on if you have removable centre's or have pitted rims.
By the way top job on the rims using Autosol man bet your hands where stuffed after doing one. Mine took like 3-4 hours with the drill and my hands were stuffed lol.
Yeah for my 13's I used polishing pads etc but they where hell bad condition. I just did these oneday at home and all my polishing stuff was at work
And yeah my hands were fucked and I was tired haha. Can't wait to get the tyres off and redo them properly
Found a fixed back bride. Just gotta get some money for it!
Been thinking a lot about wheels and im keen to get abit more poke again! Thinking either 13x7 -6 hayashi streets that are on buddyparts with some 13x7.5's on the rear or maybe some ssr mkIII's.
Just trying to make up my mind about 13's or 14's....
Finding decent tire's in a suitable size for 13's can be a bit rough. And you need to run the car quite low in order to make it look sensaish!. But i don't think you have a problem with going low...
When i look at Beau's wagon, it makes me love 13's.
