Haha. I wasn't sure about that either but the tires are dead anyway so I didn't worry about it. It didn't seem to do much to them anyway but I dont think I would do it on a new set of tires.

Personally I would keep some stock ITR wheels stock. Your painting process and outcome was good. They look good on the car either way.

Thats the only comment so far that I dont agree with at all. I dont think it makes them look cheap at all. I also dont see how you could turn this into rota discussion lol.
