rpsmith79 Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 I'd suggest picking up your old wheels and take your time refurbing the ones you have got on now No point rushing them as they probably won't last too long, i always try and leave about 24 hours between each main coat (primer, colour, lacquer) then a further 24 hours to let it all set nice and hard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oMIKEYo Posted April 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 (edited) Sounds a much better way to do it rich lol I agree with you haha. But then there's another problem haha. I have lost most the wheels nuts out of the old wheels (ones with washers on) can I use my other wheels nuts with them wheels?

rpsmith79 Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 No, don't use the wrong wheel nuts, but if you at least have enough for 2 wheels then do 2 at a time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
werewolf Posted April 9, 2011 Report Share Posted April 9, 2011 I have to confess to using tapered wheel nuts on non tapered wheels before. Which I presume is what is going to happen here. As much as it is not very good practice, it caused no issue what so ever. So I say got chuck you're old wheels on, and do a thorough job of the refurb.
