Could you post a pic of the side view of your car? I was thinking of painting my rims as you did. Thanks

 

[Jsanders86]

took out the inserts this morning....not sure if i like them better this way or with the inserts in...

 

[jeff613]

Tint those windows and black out the tail lights and you'll really like them better this way!

 

[Jsanders86]

yeah the windows are next, probably gonna go with 20%....gonna have to take it slow considering i have a wedding to pay for

just had an idea.....i like the looks of wheels on cars that are black with the chrome lip that gives you separation from the wheel to the tire.....well how do you all think it would look with a pinstripe(not sure on color) around the outside edge of the wheel to separate the wheel from the tire?

Ya, I think you need some kind of separation otherwise it just looks like a black disc. I had these rims on my old car ADR Battle Exe wheels in black. (pic at the bottom on the toyota) These rims are kind of the same idea as the kia rims.

Curious, what it would look like on my Titanium Silver too.

Matemorh looking real nice... I was thinking about doing the same with my wheel. I was wondering how it would look and I love it. Guess I'll be doing mine soon

Thanks

Nice job Matemorh! Looks great. I guess I have another item on the to do list.

Tx Guentherstruck,

Try Duplicolor rattlecan!!
It doesn't show in my pics but the insert are not the exact same color (close but a bit diff.) as the body but it look like a pefect match because it doesn't touch any body part! So don't worry, duplicolor should look perfect!

 

[Guentherstruck]

can i just pick that up in a store... or do i gotta order it... and what is the color code or color name that i would want from them?

 

[Deuce-Koup]

I just got tint and I took the inserts out of the wheels and it looks pretty darn good. I'll post some pics tonight.

 

[LeShadow]

Well... IMO they looks nicer without inserts.
But for the style, painted inserts are great !
