Dang I looked at this for so long until I realised it was for the inner rod. I was so confused. This looks like a great tool. Another injected plastic box for my collection.
I for one am a torquer. I'm far too anxious and neurotic to not use the correct torques whenever I can. I do honestly feel like my wheels will fall off if I dont.
Yeah this confirms what I was thinking. Volks are worth a crap load more than my M Sport 17s and 2500 is nuts!
240 is crazy cheap, was this 20 years ago?
I have a fairly good air compressor so I'm tempted to get an eBay sand blaster.
Has anybody had their wheels refurbished? I reckon it's likely bloody expensive. Even a sand blasting quote for my 17s was 200-300 per wheel!
The E39 wheels are basic BMW M Sport (or M Tech at the time.) they have slight rash and some have signs of bad repair in the past on the lips. The main issue is that they've become really off coloured.
I think it will be too much as this is definitely (supposed to be) a budget resto.
I've been looking at others for sale but they all have some minor damage and colour issues.
In the end I think I'll just need to sand blast them myself and do a respray.
This is insane! The M1 likely to be closed for the entire day!
