Is On Wintersports

[PhoneDrome]

Have a look what I did. It will look great!!

These are the OEM Lexus IS Sport rims! They look great! Unbelievable! Even the guy who worked them up wanted them for his showroom.

Don't know how they will look like on a silver car. But.... who cares. They wíll turn heads for sure.

They will have some stickers on. This was why I asked about the manufacturer of the OEM Wheels here: LINK

In the inside it says they are genuine Toyota. So I will go for this:

I will also stick on the wheelsize (7JJx17) and a sticker that says something like "WINTERSport". Not sure about the color yet. But a color from the sticker above.

The rims are fitted with Nokian WR 215/45R17V. Hoping they are quite and good enough for our moderate climate during winter season. The came 130 Euro/each.

I'm proud of it. Have a nice day folks

they look quite good mate :)

[waddy]

I considered getting mine done in white (on a red car so think it would look spot on) I'm interested to see how your's turns out with them on.

Get the pics up as soon as possible :winky:

[aido]

They look fantastic Andi!

They looked good in black but I think these look even better - your man did a very good job :D

I might have to copy the idea for my winter alloys

[Kazi]

They do look really good. Was it alot of ££££? I still really need to get mine refurbed!!

[Lex-aholic]

I think they're gonna look really good. B) A different but good idea. nice one

[PhoneDrome]

Was 50 Euro/each to work them up and get them respraid.

Yeah, copy this idea and we will make a club of whities :D

BTW: They are much whiter. I didn't use the flashlight. So they look a bit.... ehrm spermwhite

Well done Andi! A unique idea, and i like it!

[Robin H]

Thanks for all this positiv replys. I'm hoping to mount them next week. Can't wait!

BTW: In my kitchen it smells of rubber

[Rob]

i also use my standard alloys for my winter wheels - but snow chains and a lowered car doesnt go too well together!

loving the colour!!

i was thinking of doing the same to mine as i think the wheels suit the is soo much

[GALLA_4]

Good thinking mate! They look way more expensive than €50 per rim!!

I wonder what they would look like if you were to powder coat them in White or black! Powder coating them is like a really ultra tough plastic paint. Very easy to keep clean!!

[PhoneDrome]

Dunno the correct words: But think about this, get the "star" in gold and the "bed" in white. it should look great!

powdercoating was far too expensive for me. quoted 80 Euro/each without working them up.

[Rob]

hey that looks good andi!

[GALLA_4]

I might buy a set on eBay! get them powdercoated over here in Ireland, and flog them on! You could sand blast them back to bare metal! I did exactly this process with my calipers all round and they look as good now as they did the day they were done!

[GALLA_4]

Are we going to get to see them on the car?

[PhoneDrome]

Logos are normal vinyl stickers.

Put in the replacement batterys... they were already empty :(
