The base is mixed with an adheasion promoter that is garunteed(sp?) to stick to anything so chipping/flaking should not be an issue. The base and clear is mixed with a flex additive that is used on plasic bumper covers to also insure no chipping, the paint will actually dent if hit with a rock instead of chipping. And the painted part is only cleared, not the whole wheel. The color is the same paint code as the spokes of factory bullitt wheels, with an extra 10 grams of black added to make it a little bit darker.

Sorry, more than you asked but I cut and pasted lol

Formulaon18s-

I am currently looking at a set of these wheels for myself. I found them in a staggered fitment 18x9s are 25mm and I am unsure if they will fit properly or look too funny. The 18x10s for the rear is im guessing the same offset that you are running (41mm) do you have any issues with thsi offset? I dont know what I need to order. Thanks man!

No sticking in or out too much in the fenders? Its also weird with these rims, a lot of people say they are discontinued, but after doing a quick google search, there are a lot available.

I bought them used. I believe they still list them in Summit. Try that. I think they go for 249 each in chrome, and cheaper for the black centers.

That looks nice! I had thought about doing the same thing to my Chrome 17x9's. May have to think about that again. Off topic, but does anyone know the proper size hubcentric ring for Rebels? I could use a set of rings for my car...

Those look real good. The gunmetal centers are a great match on NBM.
