Clean Mahles!

Ok, I picked these up as you may recall a couple of weeks ago to replace my damaged fuchs.

Pics attached.

I clipped this picture somewhere; might have been here (sorry). I think this looks really good on a white car.

Personally, I think the Mahle's are the best looking 4 lug wheel.

Thanks Guys, I won't admit out loud that I might like them better than the fuchs.

Funny you should say that, because I had removed a "Shut up James!" from my last reply..



Shut up Mike! They do look *fairly* good, though.

heh

Here is what they looked like when I got them...

[kellzey]

Nice joB! And nice deal you got!

I've always loved Mahles over any other 4-bolt wheel...

My last car had a set. New center caps and bolts.

I stripped them, painted them with Wurth Silver paint, and clear coated them.

They looked awesome!

Here they are...

[mikester]

Right now these are unpainted, the surface needs a little work before they can be painted still. They look damn nice now though.

Hey Mike,

They look good and makes the car look good too!

The set I did I just glass beaded them, painted them with Wurths Silver and Clear Coat. The rough edges can be filed with a very fine file.

I traded them for Fuchs because the the eFFers are about 2 lbs lighter each and I gotta wax RedBeard with my puny 4 banger. That's if M. doesn't take possesion of it first thru his onging litigation (I honestly didn't know they knew what that word meant in Cracker Land).

See you next Sat - look for the trail of parts and rust down I-15 - I'm moulting.

[red-beard]

Man Ron, you're on a Rampage....

And it's not even Sunday morning...

[Ron Meier]

Shhhhhhh - I'm baiting him - I've got a sixer of Billy Beer and a bag of peanuts. He won't be able to resist.

[M. Hendrix]

OH MY GOD!

MENTAL ASSAULT! UNLAWFUL CUNNING! BRANDISHING A FIREARM!

=o0

..did you just say 'cracker-land'?

Hey Ron, Mahles are cast too, that makes the Fuchs better.

Plus, the Fiance likes the Fuchs better - hard to get past that.

[Tidybuoy]

Those look Great!

My car is similar to yours & I've always wanted fuchs for my car but I've decided - Mahle's it will be. Fuchs look better on darker cars.

Vern

p.s. can anybody tell me how you get those photos into your post?
