    they arent on yet haha, thus the brick stopping them rolling away.
    gotta get lips stripped and get the lips clean, then polish them. not going to dissasemble them at this point.
    just a mini refurb.. dont plan on winning any trophies so im not bothered.

      Just realised you said get them. Not got them on
      I am having a shocker of a day. Drive the wrong way on the freeway for 20 mins. Get beat up at work. And have a patrol bike stare me down as I cruise past him

        ha all good.
        good luck stripping the lips with them bolted up without doing a half arsed job or ruining the paint on the centre. id suggest splitting them and doing the whole lot.
        Otherwise talk to Rayray about doing it for you, not sure how much itll cost but im sure itll be a mint job

          when they are on she will come down to a more suitable height.

              as Dyl said absolutely NO WAY you can do a proper job on the RS's without splitting them. It'll be a half arsed job and people will spot it a mile off. Ray is the man when it comes to RS building

                Yeah having looked closer today I wouldn't not pull them apart.

                All my paint and panel experience should have spotted that haha.

                I'm gonna chat with ray case I've seen bimas RS' and they are wheel porn.

                And mine have a fatter dish and lower offset so I might as well splash the cash and get it done right and have some great wheels.

                Probably stay with a silver centre.

                Or perhaps gunmetal.

                  Dish and low offset is what makes an RS look like sex. Without that it's just a wheel. Tear em apart, do it once, do it right

                      RS still look dope even with .5 lips. I plan to prove this very soon

                        Indeed they do, a nicely refurbed set still sitting with a nice offset would almost stand out as something different compared to all the wide lipped ones we make. They're just a beautiful classic wheel.

                          even the stock BBS have a nice charm about them. and they are soo light.
