I like my enkeis more. I'll try and get some pix this weekend. Holiday season makes me lazier and it doesnt help that the tires are bald.

Haha nope I'm planning to keep them for track duty when my car is all done. Just go to the junkyard and get them for cheap. Painting them is super easy.

put more clear on them. i have painted several sets of wheels and you can really tell a difference a few months down the road if you use 3 or 4 coats of clear.

Yep I agree. that looks awesome, very very good. Will the paint look that good after a few days of weathering tho? clearcoat? powdercoat? how did you paint it?
Vert rims look the best in my opinion. The worst are the phone dial rims that I ******* have.. UGH

They actually look alot glossier in person it's just a combination of bad lighting, mediocre camera, and bad photography. Keep buggin me all this week and I might do it haha.
