Posted a thread about a week ago, that i was gonna paint my wheels. Well i had to change my brake pads while i was off for the next two days, so i decided to go ahead and see what i could do about my ugly wheels, already had the paint. So far i've done 1 wheel, its taken me 5 hours to do just the one, thats with lots of breaks since its so hot. Not to mention i've been trying to change my brake pad, with no luck yet. I've already gone throush 2 cans of white spray paint, one of them messed up. so i will need like 6 more before im done. So with any luck i'll get all of it done by tomorrow night. Heres the one wheel i've painted so far, i had a bit of an issue of getting white on my tires, because my tape didn't want to stick but i think i can scrub most of it off with a tooth brush (my little sisters........MWAHAHAHA, don't worry its her old one she doesn't use anymore. So here is is check it out.

Nice. Nice. I decided to paint mine black. I have the same type of rims that you do just mine were chrome so I had to really rough up the chrome with sandpaper. Then i primered and painted. I think they look alot better because mine were all pitted and nasty.

if i had chrome i'd a prolly not messed with mine. But mine were ugly and plastic looking. Do you have pics of yours, i'd like to see. What color is your car
