Not bad, you need to add some tire gel or something to those sidewalls. Then I'd think it'll look good.

Yeah the car was actually a little dirty and no tire gel in the pics lol, were having shitty weather and hopefully this weekend i can wax it and make the wheels/tires look good and take better pics, those are just to get it out there for peep to see the rims. Good call breathtaker, i actually am looking for a write up on getting those lenses out to vht when the weather gets better. =-D

What up sharky? That pic is a little bit too big by the guidelines i believe, theyll end up pulling it if you dont size it down a little 500px wide by 150px tall. You know any good custom exhaust guys? Holla at me..

Basically what I don't like about it is that you pretty much wasted a good set of rims for this look. You could have easily used your stockers and junked those up. Painting the TTII's all black completely destroys the look of the wheel. So my question is, why did you decide to use those over stockers?

I powder coated mine this way. I bet your car would look a whole lot better this way.

I only really care for the all black look on a black car only...even still, it almost needs something polished to help "define" the wheel.

Again, if you are happy, we're happy
