Yanked off the wheels, getting the powdercoat off and refinishing them brushed. Should be a fun project.

Correct, I chose boring out the rears over the custom spacers. The wheels gave a staggered appearance using the same set of tires (i.e. same width on all 4 tires). Tires are ALL-WEATHER (Toyo Celsius CUV).

Washed a few of the big trucks and had time to knock the mud off the 50i.
This product is a no touch wash... foam on, pressure wash and rinse. Works exceptionally well for our trucks and heavy equipment. Not the best results on an all black car but it only takes about 5 mins to do the whole thing.
