Forza wheel trim strips

Post by fish »

Used a sheet of '12" - 15" ' pre-curved, pre-cut strips and the "wet" install method.
I like the looks of them, but they are not relfective.
Seems the reflective curved strips to fit small scooter wheels are not available here in the States, and must be purchased from China or Korea.
The small car jack and a block of pine worked fine on the lift point. The front tire comes off the ground in just a turn or two of the jack.

Your wheel trim looks great!

Question... when you raised the front tire with the car jack and block of wood, was the Forza on its Center Stand? I don't want to assume something and drop the scooter! Thanks.

Looks good and those actual reflectors will do the trick handily.

Yes, I had it on the.center stand....you only need to turn the.jack a very little to get the tire free of the ground.
Be certain to set the jack and board under that lift point visible under the scooter. I have photos posted of it.
