I'll save my Boxster Lt Alloy Carrera wheels and Michelin Pilot Sport 4S's for the street. THe wheels look pretty good as they are, but have some curb rash and I will probably get them refinished as well as have them checked for trueness.



Out of curiosity, how hard is it to strip off that plastidip?
