Easily the cleanest and one of the smartest WR1's around, not so fussed on the painted tyre lettering but each to their own :wink:

Hey Clark


Thinking of doing my tyres with some rubber paint as yours look good

Any tips on prep or application would be most welcome

Many thanks

I knew someone would copy me with the white writing! :lol:

Just clean them really well, I used Neat Degreaser and Isopropyl Alcohol and gave each letter 2 coats - has lasted well and hasnt cracked yet, despite my best efforts with some extremely hard cornering :lol:

Werkstat can be applied by hand but Project Awesome needs to be machined on to get the most out of it :)

give them a few miles of normal driving to bed in, and then stand on them hard a couple of times to really get them working..

I am sure you will be more than impressed with them even on standard calipers.
