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 .

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.
Here are a few pictures of my track setups. I have the 18" Rays track rims (painted gunmetal) on the first two pictures. The 3rd picture has my tire trailer with the same 18" Rays track rims and another track setup with stock 17" rims (powdercoated black). Both sets have race tires on them. I will be painting my '06 stock rims soon (gunmetal), which is my street setup!
I just finished the wheels on my 07, what do yall think?

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.

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?

props for combining all of the best looking pictures into one page. I don't have to look through all the pages like I used to.
also props for the great looking gloss black track v1!

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.
