Dnk Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 The trouble with the polished 3 piece rims is they'll be hard work keeping them looking nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raddys Posted August 19, 2016 Author Share Posted August 19, 2016 The trouble with the polished 3 piece rims is they'll be hard work keeping them looking nice Tbh i only drive the car at weekends, what would be the process to keep them clean? Polishing all the time or just a decent clean ever weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stonkin Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 I'd say Volks. Black and red always goes well. Agree with Dnk too, the Weds are quite a fussy wheel and will be harder to keep nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polishing all the time or just a decent clean ever weekend No easy answer with polished split rims, in time no matter what you do they age i'm afraid, best thing I did was powder coat my 3 piece all black and fitted new rim screws Those weds are quite complex so will take time and patience to keep them looking good, my WORK Equips were a simple 5 spoke in comparison Edited August 19, 2016 by Dnk (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

j_jza80 Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 I've got some BBS LM which i'm looking to part with. Similar, but nicer than the Weds wheels in your post. You could get them bead blasted to get the polished look if that's what you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fitz Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 If that Red Supra above is yours I think it looks ace on Stock Wheels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike2JZ Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 If that Red Supra above is yours I think it looks ace on Stock Wheels Exactly that, car is completely stock would just drive it like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noz Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 I prefer Weds. I own a set and I feel there's just something special about their designs. Cleaning them however is a right pain. Worth the effort though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 I'd love to have a set of CE28s as a second set of wheels. Though I'd personally go for more of a graphite finish on them (my car is black), or possibly just a hyper silver if on a red Supra. My CCWs are a polished 3 piece, and I don't find them that bad to keep clean. They are unlacquered too, you just have to make sure to seal them well (using Nanolex or GTechniq C5) when you first get them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richie_k83 Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 White Wheels also look great against Red Cars. Bit of a love hate thing owning White wheels, hate them when they get dirty, love them when they are clean lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 I'd go with the black Volk CE28N, one of my favourite wheels and they'll be a lot lighter than than the 3 piece Weds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 I prefer the volks I had stich mesh iii's on both my last supras, they're almost identical to the weds you posted. They're lovely looking wheels and suit a supra imo, but they are a pita to keep clean with a painted finish, so many fiddly bits to get into - I imagine a polished set would be a nightmare to maintain. My current wheels are polished and are a much simpler design (5 spoke SSRs) but I'm not going to run them over winter as I know they'll be impossible to keep on top of (mine's my daily).

tkddav3 Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 Works wheels for me don't be put of my polished rims though. My meisters are fully polished and they look as good as they did a year ago when new. Although mine is garaged and never driven which helps I Spose. Only problem is stuff like water Marks, just keep on top of them and they'll be fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 (edited) Sound advice there Don't use the car and they'll look great for ages Afraid I just can't be doing with the hassle of polishing wheels, my car was a jetwash queen, spray with Autosmart TFR then jetwash off followed by a brisk run up the dual carriage way to dry it off Edited August 19, 2016 by Dnk (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mc92 Posted August 19, 2016 Share Posted August 19, 2016 I prefer the Volks. I like simple spoke designs like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
