I like those painted wheels with the polished lip. That looks sweet! It breaks up the color a little bit.

I was thinking about doing that to my 10 spoke 87 TII wheels. My car is Sunrise Red. I was trying to decide between gunmetal and white. What do you guys think would look cleaner?

the paint i sed is made by DUPLI-COLOR; high performance wheel coating, its designed to paint rims. bont buy others. it wont look as good upclose. it is improved resistance to brake dust, chemicals, cleaning solvents,and chipping.. its a bang for your buck.. priced at $4.95 and any local store.. they also sell clearcoat for this paint. if you like the extra protection and glossier look. have funn
