They do make tape/newspaper for a reason. You could have taped the lip that you were going to polish and cover the tires. Cheaper alternative to new wheels though. :cool:
\'98 Camaro V6<br />Appearance... pleasing<br />Performance... just a little extra air.
yea, i wasnt thinking when i started. theses are just an extra set of wheels and tires. and the tires are half gone anyway. yea im gonna try to clean the paint off the tires as much as i can before i put them on. i can just press hard against it and the paint well bend with the tire then chip off. so im sure a wire brust will get it all off easyly. sadly i cant polish it by hand. i tryed on the one, got all the way up to 2000 grit and it took 8 days, and i couldnt move my arm. and that was only half the rim. but i know a got a dremel for christmas. so over christmas vacation ill go crazy all day long. im excited. thanks for the comments guys.
