Default 411 wheels powder coated

Today I took delivery of the freshly coated Dunlop wheels for my 411. The company totally stripped the wheel from all paint, glass blasted them and then double coated them. first in silver then in black, masking the parts which should remain silver. Costs were 150€ per wheel. I am highly pleased with the looks now.

Regards

Thomas

That looks very smart, Thomas.

How are those Dimax Radar tyres?

I was afraid that would be your answer! Their price looked too good to be true.
