Default Wheel Paint

Whats up guys...as u know the 04+ rims are actually pretty decent... a friend of mine gave me an idea....i want http://www.wheelsnext.com/prod...num=1 <-- those arospeeds right there but right now i got no $$. He said i could get some wheel paint and do it myself to the stock rims.....i kno it sounds cheap but it would be just for a few months....has anyone done this?

you drive an S and you're going with arospeed wheels??? .. i dont' even think they have the proper fitting wheels for the S.... the offsets probably dont' fit. and the width probably dont' match up...

but as for the painting... yes you can get the powdercoated.. i think it's roughly like $50 bucks a wheel to get them powdercoated and they actually look good..

volk, ssr, works, advan, hre, kenisis, and a few others...... but aerospeed is ehhhhh..... i dont' even think they have the proper offsets and widths for our cars as it is... lots of wheel companies don't so it's makes our selection quite limited...

Your close pick up my GT-U's and I give them to you for $1700

18x8 rear 255/35/18 so-3's brand new under 1000 miles
18x7 front 225/40/18 so-3's needs to be replaced (damn camber)
50 offset f&r

Had the hub rings and the center caps also and the valve stem caps !

Have them off the car right now and ready for pick up !

see what you've done s2kdinesh.... you've mad a man cry cause of the aerospeeds hehehehehe.....

actually if you want cheap wheels go with 5zigen... they are nice quality, the style is nice, they will probably fit the S better, and they are cheaper then the wheels i've noted above.....
