I just picked up a set of rota grids, they are steel grey with polished lip. They have kumho 711's and the tires are supposed to have about 500 miles on them. They replaced my curbed up blades with bald tires.. I was thinking about painting them, probably just the middle and leave the lip how it is,i was thinking black, maybe a darker grey/gunmetal color, or maybe even bronze.. hmm, what do you guys think?
They cost me $500, and I sold my blades w/o tires for $250..

Leave them.

Agreed

 

Dont paint them please. If you dont like em, then sell them.
They seem to be in great condition. I'm sure you would find a buyer.

I'd only paint wheels that were beat to ****... these look like they're in excellent condition, I don't even see any curbin'

I say dump it more and remove the center caps.

Well, I guess I can understand, especially if you live in SF... got some fucked up *** roads there. Not saying you have to tuck, but you can afford to dump it a lill more... black or chrome, either or. Chrome is always nice and black is nice too...are you going for a stealthy look...? There's also nice and flashy anodized lugs..Just don't forget to remove the center caps, that will make a whole world of difference...... Do you have a pillow in your backseat?? haha j/p

 

Forget the rims, what in the hell is an air vent doing infont of the back wheels.

 

dont paint them, painting is gay

polish them, the entire rim

Ditch the center caps. But don't paint them, they're in good condition.
