Default Painted inside Weld RTS (update done!)

You may have visited my old thread where i painted a set of zr1s inside and out.

https://ls1tech.com/forums/paint-bod...-out-long.html


Those wheels are old news. I have a new set of Weld Rts wheels, black
17x4.5 front 15x10.3 rear


These wheels have exceeded what my expectations were, except...

Once again as soon as i got the wheels i noticed how the inside part (the barrel) was unpainted/unpolished, just bare metal.

So i went straight to work again. This time we painted the inside a satin black to match welds black on the outside..
(Weld Racing i am for hire) lol

Maybe its just me but i feel this extra step makes it that much better.

Here is the final product:














I kicked myself afterwards for not taking any before pics.
So far i only have only received the rears, i have the front runners on the way and ill take some before pics when we do those.


Once i get my tires and mwc fab9 ill post completed pics!







Update:


Got my front runners in.

I did not get a before pic because these actually came polished inside like they are outside the wheel.

A little weird they would polish some wheels and not others. (maybe because the fronts are small and the rears wider?)

Either way, the rears were already done so the fronts would have to be as well..

So here you go :












My fab 9 and tires are scheduled to be arrive soon. Update and Finished pics coming!

Looks good! heres pic of backside and I noticed before having tires mounted and weld basically told me they are race rims and could sand up to look better. Well not to happy bout that they polished at a small fee and looks like how i think they should come.

Damn, I want mine to look like that. I too was surprised that the barrel wasn't polished. How much did you pay to get them polished?
