Finally

Wheels have been tweaked as much as possible (for now). Dismounted, removed TPS, stripped the clear coating off, full polish, dark chrome process, black high gloss insides.Original center cap and valve stem and lug nut covers are looking good with this look. ( the wheel stud alignment tool is TOO short to be used on the rear wheels... where it is REALLY needed!!!!!!!! ) NORMALLY I would NOT Chrome over Aluminumum. (I've seen some nightmares). I made an an exception this time. Audi should offer this option. I am a FULLY POLISHED 'kinda guy, but the R 8 with these stock brake pads are MESSY.I want to have a life without the hassle of repolishing all the time. Polished wheels can really complete the beauty of some types of cars.Tried to upload pic from my computer but could not. See pic at gallery.Thanks.
