I have them on my 929 right now and wondered if theyd look better painted in the middle to give it that drifter with deep dish rims look ???

Hmm..I don't think so. How about polishing the lips? Would make the lips stand out more. I am about to put a pair on my car, I might try it.

Hey 9ine Deuce.

I have seen them in black and I think they look pretty good. Try powder coating. It will give it a nicer finish.

E-mail me. I also received a set over winter and was thinking about re-finishing them in black. I decided to just polish the lip and clean/wax the silver.

Good luck! Kerry
