ZR-1 and Shebly wheels ( Polishing and cleaning) - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

I need to disassemble my Shelby wheels to clean them up mostly..

When I put them back together, what should I torque the bolts to?
I plan on using loctite on the bolts as well, but was curious on the torque spec

3 of the 4 barrels need to be cleaned and polished.. one center needs paint so I might paint all 4..

I am in no rush to get them ready, as my 17" tires are still good.

As for the barrels, I tried, Adams and Mothers without success.. So do I try polishing compound first? or should I use 1500 grit sandpaper to get them clean (Salt damage)
