If it's your track setup I can't really fault you on it.

It's very, very hard to turn the 17's into anything praiseworthy when it comes to painting. As far as the lettering, if it's for the track, I understand the look you're going for.

^ they look terrible in pictures. I bet they even look worst in person. Why didn't you just leave them silver? What is the point of a baby blue stripe going around the wheel? sorry man but thats just my 2 cents.
