Default 3 piece RH 'Speedline' look wheels

Hello

I've bought a set RH wheels on ebay in poor condition.-
They are speedline look and I want to restorate them.

I've used the "search" but only found info on the speedline script from the outer rims....?

My question; does anyone here know:

-The grey color code for respraying the centers?
-The torque spec for the screws (for reassembly)
-What type of Loctite should be used for the scrrews
-How to bolt them together -> each time opposite screw?
-Where to found the socket wrench and whats the name of such a socket


Any other attention points?

Hope someone can help me

Regards
Turbo

Hey man, this is a perfect match for the silver that porsche used on the cup one wheels if that is the silver color your looking for.

Most 3 piece wheels use a torque value in the range of 18 - 22 ft lbs. for the bolts and nuts. Blue loctite is what I use when assembling wheels. The color will really depend on your preference, whether it is a spray can or a professional spray gun. You can go visit a paint (automotive paint store) look at the German car colors and find something you like. BMW, Porsche, Mercedes your choice, and you do not have to stick with metallic silver - have fun and enjoy the journey. Jim
