i finally had the time to ppainted my wheels today. I never saw anyone on the forum did it, so i might try out mine. A friend of mine did it on his s2k and it look pretty dope. So why not on the rx8. An inexpensive way of getting new wheels. Spray painting the rims black stop me from getting new wheels hahaa. Will post picture later on t oday when i find my digi cam.

 

I want to see this !

 

great no pixs

 

no pics = no mods =)

 

I'm really interested in seeing this. I am thinking of having my wheels powder coated when I get my winter wheels put on. Are the wheels glossy or more of a matte finish?

 

will post picture in a bit around 30 minutes when my bro come home with the camera..its dark over here already but i'll still take em..
also i posted on here before about my Aftermarket HIds
also will be posting that too

 

it night time so the sot i took may not come out as well.
take more 2morrow in the sunlight

 

they look nice. Day time pics would be great when you get a chance..

 

i wonder if that how the tiens drop susspoe to look like.. cuz it still like 2 - 3 fingers between the front gap...did i install it wrong or something?

 

Now if you can only figure out how to polish the outer rim, they'd look reeealy nice!

 

As long as you like it.....

 

did you put a clear coat on afterwards? did you use high-temp paint?

hmm I'm excited for the close up shots and sunlight shots....
the flash illuminates the wheel well...nasty in there

 

it must be a early install or such.cause u can see the springs in the front
or maybe its the way the wheel is turned,
show us some day time pixs im sure it will look better.

 

hmm a lot of this been did you preload the springs before your tighten the bolts? Try driving around for a little bit should help the springs settle a bit more. Very nice tho, I like

 

me gusta mucho amigo!! i wanna see daytime pics!!! you give me a very good idea.. DAMm i love this forum xP

 

Post on the 7 club that i replied too. You have your rims striped, polished and then powdercoated. Canzoomer does it for like 100something a wheel.

 

It looks kind of cheesy IMO. I'd prefer black chrome.

 

I agree, it looks tacky.

It might look better in person though.

 

I like it.

 

i love it! a blked out car is really cool! good job:D

 

Yea, Black Chrome OEM wheels will be my next mod with 245/40/18's!

 

It would look better without the stock brakes since all that black brings out the rust.

 

i think its pretty original. but wwhat i wana do is possibly take our stock rims and give it a lip and maybe make it 19". obviously thats gonna require lots of custom work. but that might be pretty cool

 

day time pictures

 

hey how do i make it go down more cuz i dont think the tiens is correctly install
