Two quick pictures-refinished wheels.

When I bought my Continental DWS tires, Jay Wolfe Acura suggested that I have my wheels refinished. My wheels had hit so many curbs and looked so bad. I had touched them up with ACURA touch up paint so much.

Well, they were originally done back in November/December. But the paint on the wheels started peeling. Jay Wolfe Acura called the company and they came back and refinished the wheels again, at no charge!

Plus, no more curb kisses!

Awesome!

I wished my rims were perfect; each of my rims are curbed like crazy from the previous owner.

Nothing like a set of newly refinished wheels to go along with the new drop, eh?

Looks good Steven.

Thanks guys-they REALLY look good. I'll try to get another picture today for you. They seem to now have some metallic sparkle to them (in the direct sunlight).

Jay Wolfe Acura is really awesome-they truly know how to take great care of their customers.

Well done. How do you like the Continental DWS? My dad has a set on his 540 and he loves them. I probably will order a set soon. I need a good, all season tire.

They're great, Cyb! My girlfriend lives a couple of hours away, so the Conti's are getting a workout. They're quiet on the highway and great in bad weather.
