Default Got pics of your OEM wheels sprayed? Post 'em up >>

I know some people are gonna hate on stock wheels, but in my opinion - when done right > They're hoT. sandBlasted/powderCoated, polished, or anything in between. Open to any generation Prelude. Any questions about sprayin' wheels should be Searched first.
I'll start .. my 4th gen Si wheels sprayed by me >> Graphite.

I agree with u, if done right then stock painted rims can look beautiful!

This is guntmetal paint when I did it the first time. It came out real nice but I was stupid and scraped my wheels against the side walk.


So I stripped all my wheels and painted them flat black, but the paint was really crappy and powdery...


I hope to get them powdercoated glossy black like so (not my car):

(Which I think looks just amazing!!!!)

For the most part they look pretty good, but i prefer them with an unpainted centercap. Also, some of you have your weights on the outside of the wheel...c'mon its 2006 use some stick on weights on the inside of the wheel.

Here is a pic of mine just used spray paint a lot cheaper and even if i did get them powder coated they would still chip so why not go the cheap route and they still last as long and if they chip go buy another 3$$ can and fix em lol
