Bought these wheels a year ago and never liked them, so I never used them.
Was about to trade for some stock wheels but decided I'd give them one last chance.

Wet sanded the crap out of them.

Took out my LPH-50 and some PPG paint.

Not enough pizazz so I added some decals.

Now it's dark, spent the day on this project....

Think I'll keep them a little bit longer.
Got some black Sparco Monza seats with red inserts to match the wheels.

All comments welcome.

 

wow...looks great.

 

wow...nice change. got anymore full car pics?

 

On the 19s, in storage for now.

 

nice wheels i got em too

 

Clean ride...loving those rims, i actually meant if you had some pics of the newly painted Sparco rims though? Now you got the best of both worlds...clean look and a sinister look

 

dam thats a nice job. looks 100x better now

 

Thanks for the comments.

Here is a close up.

 

That's nice. Did you clearcoat those things?

 

Those look really nice now. Great job. I guess you are "Mr. Sparco"

I'm not a big fan of those wheels either, but in the color scheme you did, they look awesome!

 

is the red ring one continuous sticker or pieces of it.

looks good.

 

so the red is deal or paint.....cuz no pics of that step up top

 

The red is vinyl sticker material.

I tried doing it one continuous sticker but when I made a mistake I had to start over and that wasted a lot of materials. Each wheel has 3 long strips. I'm going to paint it a candy metallic red later. No clearcoat right now but will be doing that when I redo the red.

 

The wheels look excellent

 

wow I have these with the low low offsets as well... i must say you have given me an idea..

can someone PS the wheels to Gold with silver middle? thanks.

 

Like this?

 

Those wheels look great. I'm sure you're glad you gave them another shot. What are the specs?

 

18x8 F, 18x9 R +22 all around 245/40/18, 275/40/18. Azenis front and I forget the rears FK something.
