The difference I noticed is in the paint. They ALWAYS (and have told me to do the same) use the duplicolor wheel paint because it not only matches OEM wheel colors but its a little tougher. They say no need to prime since you are sanding but do a good 3-4 layers of light coverage on just the f-d up areas. Obviously S85 was changing the color of the wheels so thats different but for touch up of OEM wheels I am told thats the way to go.
I need to figure out my winter tire situation and then I'm gonna refinish my 135's - might plasti dip um, might paint um grey like my VB3's or might just touch um up and leave OEM silver.
