Plus track wheels....what colour? - 02/11/2011 20:54

I have a set of plus wheels i (and nismo) will be refurbishing tomorrow.

I want to do something different as they are just for track use however they still need to look good in the photos of me overtaking proccy laugh

Any pics on.a red coupe would be good. So far im thinking:

Gloss White
Graphite
Broom Yellow

Gloss White or Graphite but not Broom Yellow as you won't be able to see your Yellow calipers laugh

Pm porky paul for pics of his white wheels cool

You should know what graphite would look like, as it's similar to LE coloured wheels.

No to yellow wheels.

Since they are track wheels, why not make a statement.
Have a look at Porsche Track Orange at

Fifth image down. They look fast when standing still.

Graphite plus wheels would look good on a red car, however just for comedy value and because it's not my car.....go for yellow!!

In Portugal plus wheels for sale are very rare, and cost more than € 500,00 EUR, so please do not make fun of the poor grr

Try the Poorboy's Wheel Sealant. Will make it much easier to clean your wheels - even using just a water hose.

the wheels have been sanded down , metal fillered , sanded again , etch primered , sanded down again the bits we missed , etch primered the bits we sanded down again and now have the final top coat and have been left to dry ready for the lacquer on monday , the tyres will be fitted wednesday/thursday ready for the ace cafe meet on thursday night so we'll get some photos to show the final finish . i think Mario is very happy with the finish and didn't exspect them to come out as good as they have and we only spent £40/£50 on paint/lacquer and about £30 on tea/milk and sugar laugh so a very cheap home refurb .

If I didn't use my car everyday, I would take my mirrors off and send them to you laugh

The spare set I've got, I ruined when trying to do led indicators a few years ago frown

Re: Plus track wheels....what colour? - 05/11/2011 12:03

Thanks cool

I reckon Mario would love the reflective paint though laugh
Posted By: MarioCirillo

Re: Plus track wheels....what colour? - 05/11/2011 12:52

They had glow in the dark wheel paint in the shop ... however Im not sure I will be doing many night track sessions laugh
Although I hear it takes proccy so long to go around donnington It may well be dark by the time he completes his first lap laugh

Those pimp wheels are quite funny laugh
