Ranger wheels

[Dezmondo]

Does anybody know of a good colour match for the ranger wheels to get them back to the original white? Have a very good rear set and have given up finding a good front set at a reasonable price.

My opinion is that they look much better sprayed with Tamiya Silver leaf paint.

If you need them for a shelf queen would recommend TS white primer and then TS pure white, if for a runner just TS primer or PS (lexan) white as they both seem to hold up pretty well (but are more matt)

I preffer them white as this design wheels usually were http://www.tamiyaclub.com/xforum/topic.asp...amp;whichpage=3

Same also for Brat, on the same page.

Great Pics. Been trying to find real Ranger pics for ages and they were here all along! Still need an answer to my question though. I think Tamiya do a racing white that doesnt look too 'white'.

[DJTheo]

Racing white is very cream, they will look like yellowed/aged... Agree though, pure white could be a tiny bit too bright, but still much closer then racing white.

Thanks. Have already tried pure white but it seemed too shiny as you said. May go for the primer instead as tou suggest. It is for a runner but at the same time I keep it as nice as possible.

You can see how primer will look like on my Celica http://www.tamiyaclub.com/showroom_model.a...=8981&id=16

Good luck man.............In restoring my Brat, (Same rims and tires) I paid $70 USD for just the front set! []

The backs I just went with AJ's for now until I find a better set for a good price, but they look simular.
