I don't like it because it makes the wheels appear smaller then they are. But as long as you're happy.

Damn guys. Give him a break, he tried being (somewhat) innovative. I think if he added the silver stripe around the lip it would look sick. Plus his car really does need to be lower.

oh no... man, sux, sometimes trying to be innovative means you have to suffer the consequences when it doesnt work out. nice try man, nice try.

its cool looking but i'd rather just black out the whole rim with matte paint for a silver car. i don't like it much the way it is. it gives the illusion that the wheel is much smaller than it is. at first glance i thought the lip was the tire.

boy oh boy, those did not come out nearly as successful as I would have hope they'd be, this is simply IMO of course, all are entitled to their opinions on this look.

The center spokes ended up looking smaller than they truly are and the lip is completely gone...

Some of you guys are haters.
his rims will look better than just about anyones who posted here with a little pinstripe action.


I couldn't figure out how to make the circle tool have a 1px line, so heres a rough idea of how these should look. It would look good with just about any color but I like the silver on silver.
Looks f*ckin sick, so now all the haters will hang on his nuts when its done.

We're talking about the truth here...no hating involve.
Agree, the strips make rims look stand out more.
