painting my wheels

[Brian_B]

I know. Every time I think of him asking that I laugh out loud. The bad (sad!)part was he was so serious at the time. He literally thought they all sprayed out of the one can.

Now I'm sad.. I needed to get my word in. I love black, stealth is the way to go. But whatever suits ya.

 

[89frankenford]

nah man i did paint them black!

 

[tomtoc]

i think he's really just stalling so he can go get something to cover up the grabber green all over the wheels

 

[89frankenford]

i looked at them silver colored and didn't like it on my truck.

 

[tomtoc]

so what color did you end up with?

 

[89frankenford]

i painted them semi gloss black. looks really good

 

[tomtoc]

still think you should go with an orange pinstripe. ...just on 1 of the spokes - from the axle to the edge of the rim

 

[TheRoadVirus]

There ya' go.

 

[89frankenford]

hmm that might look good actually. i would do it until i get the body work though

 

[TheRoadVirus]

Don't mis-interpret my post to be about his.. it was about you staying with black.

 

[89frankenford]

well FINALLY heres the pictures of the rims i sanded/grinded them down from what they were painted with. i used a semi-gloss black with a primer underneath. i think they turned out pretty good for what they are. its nothing special but they look all the same now and they look a whole lot better then they did!

Wow that looks great Travis!

 

[Brian_B]

rattlecan (not Ryan) paint jobs look pretty good for a long time.

 

[89frankenford]

yup about $10 of paint/primer and it looks great. this summer i plan on buying some new rims for it though. this is just for now.

 

[tomtoc]

looks sweet

Looks good man, you got the chrome centers to go with it? I think that would look good. Tires with white letters, black wheels and the chrome centers will look real good. I love White Letters by the way.
