Title: Wheel info please
Post by: brophy320 on August 25, 2009, 11:35:04 PM
Hi all,
 
i need a bit of info on my wheels, dont have the car at the mo as it is with carl at haywards, but found it on the net, they are racing beat RB-02 or i believe also known as LSR.
 
Anyway what i want to know is are they specialst refurb or can i do diy?  What i mean is the outer rim dish just polished or is it plated.
 
Also any idea\'s where i can get the centre caps or are they super rare?
 
If someone lets me know how to post ill add a pic
 
cheers
 
mark

Yup, they\'re racing beats ok! Made by Rays :)

Got a set in my carden that I rfurbed for my other half\'s MX5 - like any split rim, you can DIY if you want, but stripping and polishing the lips is a labour of love - takes a looooong time to get a nice finish.

You\'ll have a lot of trouble findign the centre caps tbh - I\'ve only ever seen one or two other sets in the UK other than ours. I know Kieran used to have a set on his FD.

Jit used to have Racing Beat wheels on his old white "delivery van" FD, but I can\'t remember if they\'re the same as those now. Or if he had the centre caps.....

....not being much help, am I :o
