EDIT: new wheels, tires, and red calipers! *pics*!!
Borbet Type E rims wrapped in Dunlop Sport A2s, plus Porsche red brake caliper paint!

I cleaned the calipers with a GREAT system made up of bronze wire brushes that clipped into a drill. ATE the brake crap like it was nothing.

What do you think?

SORRY about the initial problems with the pictures...ALL FIXED NOW!

Are your old wheels 16" ? Would you like to sell them?

Everything looks great but...
Please tell me you car WAS on jacks when the pictures were taken. If not, lower it to complete the good looks!
