Default 3 piece wheel hardware question...
friend of mine just picked up some true 3 piece wheels...on the face its obviously lined up with all the bolts to hold it together...downfall to this is they are all rusty...does anyone know of a place to get new hardware for these so we can clean them up real nice...or hell even a solution to the problem...IE a chemical to soak them in that wont ruin the integrity of the hardware?


Any positive feedback gets the famous REPS

thanks in advance

All the bolts that hold the hub are rusted; the rest of the wheel is great looking. Is the hardware repairable or replaceable?
