Becca's 245bhp NHB EP3 & UKDM DC2...

they are slightly lighter, but they rot from the inside out so get them refurbed if you havn't already.

I was thinking of getting them refurbed and powder coated, but I heard that powder coating can cause wheels to crack (my mate had his DC2 ones done and the rim split from the spokes... :evil:).

So I dunno if I should just get them painted? But my work want £100 a wheel.... :smt075

If the relatively low heat of baking powder coat makes them split, then the wheels were already f*cked.
 
14.02 at york yesterday, won best in class and a wee trophy! Haha.

Closest behind us was a orange Williams Clio, that was cammed and totally stripped out (only one seat ect.).

His best time of the day was 14.19 so he was still quite a way behind us in drag racing terms anyway...

There was a new Clio RS but that was pretty slow, one of the guys we met is gonna post us a DVD of the videos he took so will try and stick them up when I get them.

There was a black scooby down there pulling 10 seconds, rapidoooo!

Im pretty sure its if they are "cooked" too hot with powercoating. How you would know the correct temperature and if they did it to this I dont know.
