Doing these next , gonna put these on the wagon with some thin band whitewalls , they are a bit grubby ………
Got the backs of them blasted up , will just clean these up at home - not worth spending money on them if they are going on an EK

Forgot about the 1200 pic, beer may have been involved
Rough cut polish -
Fine cut -
Not as good as the pros but it’s only for a bloody EK
Before and after

Just need to polish up the centres and splash a bit of paint around, mount the tyres and we are done
