Steelies

95mx5 · 11-03-2010, 04:03 PM

Someone is selling a set of mkII vw 16 hole steelies with winter tires on them for 60 bucks near me. If I bought them I want to fix them up and respray them. I was wondering if anyone else is riding steelies and if you got some pics of it.

I've always liked the OEM NA/Protege steelies, I'd love to have a set.

Note due to the head exploding;

I am buying them purely for wrapping them with snow tires.

then why fix em up if they are going to get rusty and dirty when salt hits the road?

They won't get rusty if you use good paint, the dirty part ... well that just adds character.

Well, I am hoping that priming and spraying them will prevent the rust.. and dirt? well thats a risk any time of the year.
