My beloved 19” Apex Arc-8s trued out plus a new rear ..all refinished in a nice graphite gray… :thumbsup:

Thanks to Alloyfix near Newcastle Airport

Will run the 437Ms for a while..

He does say they are very strong…just shouldn’t go over speed humps centrally and avoid potholes :tumbleweed:

Much as I love gloss black, especially when I’m polishing them they do suffer from brake dust…

And you can’t see the definition and the tyre / rim..especially in photos…so after 4 sets of gloss black ally’s I’ve thrown the towel in…
