Re: Repainted stock rims

Just finished some body work and wheel painting. Would have really liked to have done the black chrome wheel thingy. These wheels were toast, wish I took some before pics too. Appears dark gray in shade, but in the sun or camera flash you see the effect. Kinda like a poor mans black chrome substitute. Yea I know I need new lugs. Just got the TA-V's tires from tirerack for $65 each, there only a million times better than the crappy Goodyear RSA's.

Re: Repainted stock rims

I like the rims but they would really look good if you did the center caps too.

Matching center caps would help a bunch!

Re: Repainted stock rims

ya i wasnt just gonna leave the centercaps alone, and FYI instead of either taping off the tire or sticking in index cards around the rim, i just used a bunch of tire shine, once your done painting just wash off the paint stuck to the tireshine
