    New tires are so nice.
    And they didn't even scratch the paint.

    It was a nice day today so I painted my wheels.
    I decided not to polish the lip. I paint one up that I had polished and didn't carefor it so I painted it all.
    Here's two done baking in the sun on the roof rack.

    And a close up.

    They turned out better than I thought they would. But I'm pretty picky.

    Yep pulled the first set in with a lugnut and stack of washers.
    But used 2 hammers to set the next set. It went much faster then the washers, but one could use washers and an impact to make it easier.

    Took advantage of this nice weather and did a little work on the festiva.
    Painted up some spare drums and put in the taurus studs.
    Used a 1/2 inch drill bit to drill out the threads


    I used a 4 inch grinder to make the seating area flat ish
    It's not perfect but the best I could do with what I have



    Here'sthe part numberif anyone is interested

    Took it to 400 tonight.
    Its time consuming but it's coming along.
    Next 600, 800, 1000, 1500, 2000, 3000, and buff lol

    Now that I got the sand blasting sanded out these next step will go much faster.

    Yeah I thought it was strange they were so close together. I can't find information on those wheels anywhere fred said he couldn't either. But I think they look great, there also pretty light.
