Thank you, I'm well aware that it didn't turn out very well, but I figured it was worth a try. The 17's are my winter wheels and they had snow tires on them that were a little undersized.

If you would like to know what it looks like now.

flame all you want to on painted stockers, they were on the ZR as a factory option, yes the dealership did that, and kept them because we didn't want the 19" thruxtons that were on the coupe when we traded for it.

Those 18's look great- that paint/machine job makes those wheels like 1000x better. Nice job.

I have a question...I'm getting mine powder coated flat black. I have blue lugs that I'm going to put on and was wondering if what you guys think I should do with the center cap. Should I leave it the stock color, make it the same color as the wheels, or paint it blue to match my lugs?
