Wheel Restoration And Boost Gauge

[Phil Leinbach]

1. When I bought my TTA it had 3 front wheels and 1 rear. I have several good straight rear wheels but the gold paint doesn't quite match the other 3 on the car and I don't know which is correct. Does anyone know of a source for the correct color paint and/or a vendor who restores wheels?

2. My boost gauge doesn't work. Is this a common problem or am I just lucky?

I had some paint mixed up that was very very close. It was from a reputable auto paint dealer. I took the actual rim in and they scanned it. I did a thread on here several years ago about restoring the wheels.

Yes it is common for them to not work and when they did they are very few that are accurate, get a aftermarket one.

Thanks Kymmee and Robert! I have a few NIB boost gauges in my shop and I hope the paint formula translates to other brands.
