Not a mark or scratch anywhere :D :D

Yeah, to be fair, 15's can usually be applied by hand on a tyre machine.

I exagerrated a little! :o

Its when you start getting to 17's it gets hard work on the rim.

Hope you used an Etch lacquer?


Mat.

On the lip?

Yes mainly, but it's good stuff to do the whole wheel.

It's not the size of the rim, its the profile of the tyre.

It's not that straightforward unfortunately.
It probably cost me around £50 per wheel not including my time, this is for bead blasting, powder coat primer and all the rattle cans, emery cloth etc.
I only did it myself for the satisfaction of achieving a reasonable job and saving a few pennies.
