Vectra C Wheels on Elite.
« on: 05 December 2010, 16:35:37 »

Well rightly or wrongly ATS fitted my 235's onto the new Vectra C Sri wheels. Hopefully the tyres will stay there ?

Thank you Pete..

Centre Caps will hopefully be fitted this week IF I can pick them up for less than a pint of gold.

Gave them the "Wonder Wheels" treatment today, tis amazing the stuff that clear liquid can remove.

yeah like laquer and paint, dont recomend frequent use, and after use its best to use a wax or sealant on the wheels, prevents the exposed paint from damage from tar and brake dust. also makes them alot easier to keep clean  :y

Personally i use Mer or Autoglym super resin, I have only used wonder wheels once, that was to remove anything the tar remover and non acid cleaners left behind.

and to keep on top of them I use a waterless wax'n'shine weekly when i clean the car.

Thank you guys....Strangely they do seem to make the car look more newer/modern...heck knows why..it just does.

Total spend, £100 for the 4 wheels, £30 to ATS to swap the tyres from the old rims to these and £20 for the centre caps which are due tomorrow. £150 all up, job done.
