well I got bored and decided to toy around with my track wheels. Figure I'd throw some pics up of the finished result.

bumping this thread... Anyone paint the chrome 18" 5 spokes (skinny spokes)? Or is it just a bad idea to paint those? I dont really like how they look, but dont have mony to buy new wheels .

These are the wheels I have.

i have those wheels as a spare set and i am thinking of painting them with the dupicolor black paint for chrome, the kit says it turns chrome wheels into black chrome

I am getting my wheels powder coated during the holidays so I just decided to consolidate all the picture posts in one place for a better look. I only went to page 16 though.

I will be painting my '06 stock rims soon (gunmetal), which is my street setup!

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

i dont understand why quoting all those pictures was necessary.. technically they are all in the one place ...

anyways found these unique stockies... i like the finish minus one of the stickers. looks like s/he filled in the 3 dots too. looks good.





and the shot that reminds me why i shouldn't buy some oem 18's.

I am curious if they used aluminite or something to fill the holes. Anyone suggest any good compound to use?

Bc I am very indecisive and I knew without a shadow of a doubt I would want to look at them multiple times before making up my mind. That being said I decided to put them all in one place the first time instead of going threw 32 pages multiple times. Plus if they weren't all together I would have forgot what the ones on page 5 looked like before I got to page 10...comprende?

Oh my bad, I just dont got none of those fancy computers like u got there.

I also thought it could be beneficial to other members on here if they could see all of them in one place, since they are the entire purpose of the thread. Sorry to inconvenience you.

Yeah yeah yeah, she needs a bath... But it snowed here not too long ago, so even if I wash it, it's going to get dirty within like 10 seconds of driving because of that **** they spray on the grond.

Oh yeah, the kits new.
