Personally I always kinda liked those kind of tires....but I do have to admit, they don't look good with the lines of the RX IMO. However, I would think they would make good race rims...

Take them to Jesse James and have him do something with those wheel blanks.

Honestly though, those have no buisness on any car outside of louisiana.

I'll be kicking *** in auto-x with ugly *** wheels! I would paint them black with a semi-gloss industrial paint.

They say the ugly mustangs are the fast ones . . . and I have seen some nasty looking festivas and omnis rape good looking cars at the track . . .

like any rapist though... they can't get "any" without using brute force.

Keep them on the track and you'll be ok IMO.

Semi gloss black might work pretty good on those. Worth the 3.50 in paint to try it. If you're gonna do all of them in black (once you experiment on one of them. perhaps the inner side to see what they look like) Then have them sand blasted with a fine grit sand to give you a nice surface for the paint to adhere to.

The car will be competition yellow with those bumper grille ducts I am working on, lowered about an inch with an intimidatingly lumpy idle.

MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
