JT1970:
The sets of z rims i am doing all have decent but mucky hubs one pair of suzue one genuine acs z hub all need stripping, never done it before any advice..
thanks

phantom photon:
Strip the axles/bearings out of them and send them to SBD  :daumenhoch:

The ones pictures below were pretty grubby before dan got his hands on them  ;)

JT1970:
Very tasty, is the acs z rim writing a decal ?? Mine is a sticker that wont survive removal and are the rims nos or restored??

phantom photon:
The white rims in my picture are NOS so the decals are original.

This idea on ebay is better than the stickers you get for the rims (and cheaper!)

i bought some of these stencils and to be honest they were sh1t. they're really hard to stick down and the paint gets under the stencil making it look like a blob, i then had to clean the paint off and re-dye the wheels and then buy the stickers.. a right pain in the arse. hope this helps
