    How to get overspray off tires

    All you need is a wire brush. They call them tire and wheel brushes but I would never use one on any wheels. I picked one up for a dollar at a thrift store years ago. Soap and water with some scrubbing should get all the over spray off the tires. No chemicals are necessary.

    Finding Wheels?

    That's my experience as well. My car started with full wheel hub caps and I was going crazy trying to find some cool looking wheels. I gave up after I wasn't crazy about the selection for sbp wheels out there. Ended up painting them black and dog dishing them and I love them now. The black...

    Finding Wheels?

    Just a thought, if you like steelie rims with dog dish caps, you can usually find a set for about $100. Also a nice used set of rallye wheels should be cheaper than new American Racing or Cragar wheels.

    Want Radial T/A's for 67 Valiant with SBP rallyes

    My girlfriends 67 Valiant has a set of old 205/60R14's on it that need replacing. She really wants some Goodrich Radial T/A's on there. I didn't think they'd have the size (or anything close these days) but I was surprised to see that they have 205/70R14 and 215/60R14's. I don't know what...

    Quick question about BFG Radial T/A's

    That is disappointing to hear. I bought a set of 195/70-14 Radial T/A's from tiresavings.com back in 2007. Looks like they don't carry them in 195 anymore. With that said, my Duster has 4 1/2" wheels and I wouldn't go any bigger than 195. Not only will they start looking like clown tires, but...

    Powdercoat or paint?

    Years ago this guy I worked with had an old VW bug and had painted his tail light bezels with different paints to see which one was better. One was with regular rattle can black dupli color and the other was with a rattle can called Appliance Epoxy that sells at Home Depot. He showed me the...

    Painting wheels

    At Home Depot they sell this rattle can paint called Appliance Epoxy. It takes quite a while to dry, but once it dries it is rock solid stuff. This guy I used to work with showed me two bezels on his old VW bug that he painted. One was with a $7 can of Duplicolor and the other was with the...

    72 center cap colors?

    I'm trying to restore a set of 72+ chrysler rallye wheels (is it rallye? ralley? rally?). Anyway I'm finding different looks when it comes to the center caps. Is the top of the cap and the outer rim chrome, while the inside is argent silver? Or is it just supposed to be stainless steel on the...
