i bought some cheap silver zr1s, stripped them with aircraft stripper and then painted them with dupilcolor wheel coating and clear coat http://www.easyautopart.com/Dupli_Co...l_Coating.html.....if i would have spent more time cleaning them up it would have turned out perfect, as is they aren't too bad......and the paint is pretty awesome......i'm not sure if you really have to strip the paint or not, on the can it says you just clean the wheel surface, scuff it a bit and spray it on; but in my case the wheels were scuffed and need smoothed down anyways....

i've actually got my stock 5 stars for sale, but if i hadn't wanted to go with the wider wheels i would have just painted them.......

what are stock sizes all around? 16x 9's? how much would it run me to widen teh two rear wheels?

the 16" wheels are 8 inches wide.....i was thinking about getting mine widened too, but i never got to the point where i checked the cost.....
