New Wheels A3 S-line

[glasgowdubber]

Have been on the lookout for some 19" wheels for my A3, really wanted MTM Bimoto again, but impossible to source second hand, and too expensive to buy brand new.

Managed to source these from an S3 Saloon, excuse the colour of the car, this is a post from another forum going through the cleaning of the wheels, and a test fit on the car before I started the process. I'm unsure of the name of these wheels, but sure someone will let me know

Test fit:



Before




Cleaning:
Soaked with some cheap Morrisons APC






Rinsed:


Insides Cleaned: Some purple rain used here, wheels weren't actually too bad by this stage


Decontamination:







Rinsed Again, Some Autobrite Snowfoam:



Now Dried, and brought inside, bathroom out of action last night:




Time to seal with some C5:






Pleased with how they have turned out, just need a couple of tyres now and I can get them on.

No mag ride on this, I have the S-Line sports suspension, didn't think they done mag ride on the S-Line models? Didn't actually drive the car when I fitted the wheels before taking them back off.
