Blasted Dymags...
I got my Dymags back from the media blaster. I am really happy I had them reblasted. Im thinking maybe just having them cleared in place of a color powdercoat. Maybe polished ? I was pleasantly suprised to find out they fit without spacers!

Re: Blasted Dymags...
They look good. I just bought another set and will do the same to mine.
Give us some pics of them on the car when you mount them.

Re: Blasted Dymags...
If I didn't like the look of the stock wheels so much I would just buy a new set of wheels for my car but I think I may need to do the same with mine. Anyone do their insets/cutouts in the stock wheels black? Yours would look good polished, I think polished looks better than chrome.

You know once the magic coating is removed they will turn into a pile of ashes within 24-48hrs.

I say leave the cap on- brake dust will get everywhere.

Re: Blasted Dymags...
Those wheels look better with the cap on, in my opinion. Only reason not to use the cap is if you have Challenge wheels that weren't drilled for it, or if you don't have any caps (they are crazy expensive).
The wheel looks more "finished" with the cap on.
