    Cheers guys for all the compliments. It took some patience and a few sore fingers damn spokes.

    As for the bolts, I polished all 120 on the buffing wheel with rouge/buffing compound and then waxed the lips and bolts once assembled.

    can I strongly recommend you run the brakes without pads, that way your nice sparkly wheels won't get all dirty

    I used the same buff and rouge on all of it. Then some mothers metal polish and finished with some Meguiars car wax.

    If i keep them waxed and washed weekly they should keep their shine. But that’s up to my sister now, wishful thinking.

    Cheers Guys, I bought for her to drive so that she stops driving mine, I also wanted a nice summer cruiser. She loves not having a roof and knows to stay clear of gutters.

    Tyres are what was recommended for an e30 so not to compromise ride etc. But In the future Id like to put 16inch BBS rs on it. Just hard to find them.
