I would like to know the best way to get these things looking like new again, any suggestions? They are very badly oxidized (almost white but not pitted). thanks

Hey, mine look like that too. I was thinking about having them chromed. Has anyone done so? Do they look good????????????

Cheap way is to go buy some Dupli Color wheel paint at the parts store.

I am doing my track PD's in Graphite, have 1 finished and looks very good

OK sounds good, Ill paint them. Does anyone know where I can get the colored Porsche center caps though?

Cheap way, paint the ones you have, takes maybe an hour.

A small paint brush or some use paint pens, gold, black and red paint

That's exactly what I did back in late July. DupliColor and hand painting. Here's the link:

(( Sorry for hijacking the thread :

I have just noticed I had not answered to you back then as I had forgotten this thread. My apologies, Andre !

The difference between early and late offset PDs is IMO easy to make : the center of early offset PDs is "deeper" in the rim, whereas yours are almost on a same virtual plan.

Can you remember the spacers size(s) ? ))

I don't remember seeing actual spacers on the back wheels. On the front were two plates each about 3 mm thick.

If you're looking for the original silver paint that Porsche used, it can be found in a spray can:

There is also a wheel clear coat that you can apply:
