: Painted wheels....what do you think?
Tried my hand at painting some wheels. Wanted to get some opinions, are they better or worse. (note, this was a test with a spare cracked wheel) I decided to go with bronze....also thought about black...Some of the paint on the spokes looks uneven, i shouldve taken more time while painting.

Kdel200sx 03-24-2007, 06:00 PM Looks real nice man! :biggthump I painted my konig theory's and those were a b1tch , because of all the spokes. It was really hard to sand it all.
I just used duplicolor wheel paint, the bronze color, some primer, and a sanding pad(almost like a scotch brite pad) i havent put any clear on...dont think i will. Do you think it would look good with a white car?
PwrdByUncleBens 03-24-2007, 06:09 PM Woot knock off TE37's! They look tremendously better in bronze. Seriously with the stock color they look ghetto, but with the bronze they look more expensive.
Sentrixx 03-24-2007, 06:43 PM ^^ LOL... Right now ebay them and sell them for 400 bucks over cost!
