Looks good, the only thing that catches my eye is the overspay on the backside of the rim . . . might want to paint that.

Yea I'd finish it up by painting the inside of the wheel too. I always wanted to do my wheels like that but with the center cap left polished too. Maybe one day when the wheels get old and I can justify painting them. LOL

Looks good, I did the same thing to mine. I would recomend using some clear coat for more gloss and better protection.

I would have left the center caps the natural metal finish, it makes the spokes look a lot better. Nice job though.
