Wheel color question

I painted my stock wheels black with some cheap ass walmart paint for the winter to cover up all that curb rash. I was thinking about painting the center caps chrome like a police interceptor has. Regardless, I'm going to do it, but does anyone have pictures of this?

Re: Wheel color question

That's a wicked cool idea, but because we are relatively close, my winter wheels will have to utilize a different idea. I'm thinking black with white striping. Think "hypnodisc"

Re: Wheel color question

I think it will look good. I'm not a huge fan of black wheel unless there is some kind of additional highlight color added and the chrome caps would be a good way to add that little splash.

After this long winter ends I'm going to refinish and rattle can my stock wheels too, but probably just a bright silver and black centers.
