Hi All,

At Carlisle, Dave and I scored an original pair of 14x7 inch American Racing Torque Thrust wheels. Its an original "crows foot" style design. We're likely going to run them on the front of the Z for an authentic day-2 look.

What is the best practice for polishing the lip of the wheel? One wheel has minor curb scrapes on the outer most lip. Any suggestion for filing down the lip? It almost seems like a large lave would be ideal...

What color should the spokes be? I'd like to replicate what Brian and Joe did on Rick's '68 L78 Nova.

Thanks,
Dan
