Default Painted my track rims... (ghetto fab warning)

Got up early today, got bored, so decided to paint the Millenia's = Fake Rota's copy of Gab's





Still trying to figure out what color to paint the other two... Green? Gold?

Running dualies front and rear on ITR? lol...

At first glance, I was about to say those are hella-wide wheels...

BTW, they don't look THAT ghetto...

Thanks. I used some cheap-o general purpose auto paint from Autozone. Some generic brand that I can't remember. Then I added a coat of clear-coat, which helped it look much better.


So, "Pink" in the lead now. Any other suggestions? Purple with yellow lip? Green with pink lip?

What's the offset on those? Looks like they stick out kinda far.

you changed the center point, so I think they're a -26 now.

Edit:

Here's some colors. white/blue/purple/red
