3 or 4 years ago i bought a 90 civic si... it had these ugly *** wheels on it with 195/60/15 and looked like it was ready to go off roading... i had a set of 91 crx si wheels sitting around and i put them on, and i threw these wheels in the back of the garage and forgot about them...

a year later my father moved to fla and took the wheels with him i never thought about them or missed them at all... 2 years later here i am in florida, buying a crx monday that has si wheels no the back and steelies on the front... i was lookin in the garage today and see these in the back collecting dust... went to the store and got some paint and clear coat...


taped off the polished lip on the wheels and got rid of the center caps

after paint


now tomorrow i will polish up the lips and throw a couple of more coats of clear on them... and get a good set of 195/50/15 (195/60/15 on there now )

 

when you repaint them I would try to do it somewhere warmer (if you can) it will come out a little smoother. Looks much better than before

 

it was prety warm it was like 65 that pic was just right after i clear coated them so they are kinda bumpy but now there smother... plus my cam pics up alot of detail they look prety smoth close up... but for only spending $10 and them only being temporairy and having all 4 match im happy... i wanna get the rota mugen RNR replicas after i get my rex painted dark grey with amber corners, bumpers, and fender lights

 

Wow, you took a nice looking alloy wheel and made it look like a beat-up wheel from a spare tire...

 

i dont know whats up with the bottom pic but they look like the middle pic in person... i agree that they look like **** in that bottom pic... ill take a new one tomarow

 

Not bad.

 

Personally I would have left them the way they were and polished them up. But if you like it then whatever floats your boat.
