Cheers Lee,Alex will be at most of the meetings I'm doing over the summer anyway so hopefully if I do break anything he'll have it.
My driving is the same mate,it's not very often I break anything buts that's because I'm very slow😂

Quick question,can you get team xray wheels in black???. I know nobody likes black wheels(well,most people anyway) but I do and would like some for my xb4.

You can only get xray wheels in white. If you want black wheels then the best to do would be to buy Schumacher wheels - they have 12mm hexes as well.

I have black schuey wheels for my two wheel drives but don't really want to spend on new hex's. Looks like I'll have to stick with the whites.

Ive dyed white wheels black before , using ryte dye , cheap as chips on ebay
And i'm pretty certain shuey wheels have a different offset.

The offset difference is hardly anything, if I remember correctly its something like 0.5 each wheel - something like that. It's easy to measure.

How did you actually dye them?

I've used the same, but too cheep for rit dye, dollar store dye, simmer on stove in an old pot for 15mins. Use a full package to make white wheels black otherwise they turn purple. may take 2 attempts.
