Painting the wheels tonight, 1 done with pics
Yup, my wheels had a really ugly / fading gold paint on them when I bought them. It was kind of fading away and they had some really nasty surface rust on them so my friend I decided to clean the wheels and repaint the middle of them black. Got one wheel cleaned and painted tonight opinions?

So basically this is just a quick fix for something ugly on the car...

i like those kinda rims, with the semi deep dish chromed lip and the middle black....i think they look badass on certain cars like the AE86, and maybe the FC also, i gotta see the finished product of the whole car from afar.

The black is much better than the gold. Black wheels always makes a car look mean. Also the colour will compliment the black trim that's on the S4's. I think it's a very good, economical move to make the car look better. Post the pics when you're done.
