I need to get paint off of a set of oem wheels - best paint stripper to do that?

I cracked one of my wheels on a bad pothole and got a set of 4 oem wheels on FB market. But the thing is that they're painted a shade grayer than oem.

I'm hoping the OEM finish is still underneath and I can just strip the paint off and maybe re-clear the wheels if necessary.

What's the best stripper for the job?

Offset question

I know what a negative offset means but not sure what the number would mean for pushing the wheel out so to speak.

I’m looking at new wheels that are 20x10 -18mm offset, is that a lot? It’s going on a GMC 2500 4x4. They also offer 20x9 -1mm offset. I like the look of the wheel being out there but I’m going to use the truck for its payload and sometimes pulling an RV for miles. Not sure if the -18mm offset would be an issue with what I use the truck for?

Finding rim measurements

How do I find it the measurements of my tires and rims?

I am trying to sell my Work CR3Ps, but I bought them with my car and they don't have any kind of documentation specifying their measurements.

Some guy is asking for offset and width, IDK what that means

Is 37 lbs heavy for a 20x8.5 wheel?

37 lbs sounds heavy as hell, but I made a list of 27 wheels I liked and 17 of them were 37 lbs or more.

Identification help

Hi guys,

I posted these wheels a while ago, I got a few comments but I’ve found more information which could help identify them.

They are Hotstuff wheels but the pcd doesn’t match any of the ones I have seen (these are 5x100) I am almost certain they are 8.5J too.

Has someone done a weird custom setup on these wheels or am I missing something?

Cheers everyone

Can anyone help me find some wheels?

I have been searching for some wheels and I'm not having a ton of luck finding what I want and am wondering if I'm bad at searching or if I need to change up what I'm looking for.

I'd looking for 19x8.5 - 19x9.5, with a +38 or +40 offset, matte back, with six spokes. I've found plenty at 18, but am not finding any at that offset in 19.

Any help, insight, or advice is greatly appreciated.

Is it possible to fit 4 18’ rims on a flight from japan to nz?

2 of my good friends are going on a trip to japan soon. i want wedssports tc105x and will not settle for anything else. i live in nz, buying and shipping will cost 4k (quoted by dealer). used market for these in my specific size is non existent here.

ive looked at some auctions in japan and some sets of 4 are going for around 1.5k nzd. Is there any chance my 2 friends would be able to fit 4 wheels (no tyre) in an extra bag or something whilst not exceeding the baggage limit with their 1 month stay worth of luggage? is there a particular shape bag i should buy get them to use?

and yes they would be more than happy to do this for me and i would def pay them a coupel hundred each for the trouble if it works out.

does anybody know if these would fit?

I'm thinking about getting some 18" model 3 rims as some drift spares but I have akebono brakes on my g35 and I'm worried they won't fit over does anyone know if they will? p.s. if they just fit over the rears that would work that's all I'm gonna use them for

Looking for something similar

I need one more of these, however they have been discontinued. I could technically use ANY wheel that looks similar since it will be the spare on the Jeep and you won't be able to see them side by side. Any suggestions?

Identify the volks rims (Audi s5)

Saw this forum post and about halfway down the thread, the above rims are posted by Mr.wreckless. He mentions they are "Volk 20" 10.5" ET 23" but doesn't give a model or reference number.

The rims match the smooth curves of the s5 way better than the straight and angular factory ones

What's the deal with Impact Racing wheels?

I'm looking at getting a set of Impact Racing 501's, but they're so cheap and have me concerned as I plan to put them on a 4500lb EV, however a YouTube video shows they have a load rating of 1600 lbs so it shouldn't be too bad with a 255/55R18 tire. What's the deal with this brand and wheel? It seems no one has ever bought these as I can't find a picture of any car with them at all, or any reviews of them. Can any wheel experts give me a reason as to why I shouldn't buy these?
