The one on the right is what the rims used to look like







I wanted the rims painted black but not too sure on what sections to have polished. I don’t want highly polished rims as they would not suit the theme of the car.


What do you think??

Should I just highlight the cross section?
or the cross and other ribs eg the bars between the arms of the cross




Your input is greatly appreciated
Cheers

I think they look awesome as is, but polishing the smaller spokes won't hurt, and if you hate it, it shoudn't be a lot of work to touch up.

i like em how they are

Hmmmm i like the iron cross thing but wouldnt mind seeing all ribs polished.

Get a mag wheel polishing kit , all u need is an electric drill , available from most Large Hardware stores.

ron - i disliked ronals until you painted them black - well done - looks sensational

nick

ps. chrome the nerfs

nick the nerfs are alloy i'm just going to polish them.

I like the iron cross theme Ron.

could you spray them black? - colour code it with the rims for cal look?

someone posted a pic of a white late beetle in your resto thread - thought it was my bug at first - but had virginia number plates - cal looks the go but!

plain ronal - sucks I never liked them

black with detailed cross - awesome!

go for a thick and thin tyre combi and it will look great.

Yep they work well and are addictive.. polished up the 5 spokes and the 4 lug fuchs, pretty happy with how they turned out. Polishing the ribs with one of these would be easy .

yeah like the iron cross mate. stick with that

yeah go the iron cross ,looks like rare brmsthe others look like there of a mazda

mazdas had ronials.... well spotted.

i rekon leave them as is.. they look great after the paint and polish... like a lot of people, i think the plain Rons look eeeech!

look cool as is, but i recon polishing the smaller spokes and the high bit on the inside 1/2 of each of the thick spokes could look cool as well, maybe cooler.
