what a beautiful Sunday today was. i like to share some pics of my wheels i painted the night before i went riding and took pics. i had my stockies painted balck before and i learn from that. anyway here are some pics and where can i get a honda center cap sticker?
and what is the bulb type the ep3 fogs use? i want to convert to 3k HIDS.

 

do those stock lugs have the right pitch for those wheels?

 

what do u mean? like the cone shape at the end? or length?

 

Get a better camera and more days pics

 

Stock lugnuts are ball shaped. Every aftermarket wheel I have ever seen is meant to use a conical shaped lugnut.



Good job on the wheels.

 

ha its a 1300 dollars camra, its my sis i had it on auto with the flash off. and some pics where phone pics like the day shots and wheel close ups. i dont know how to really use it man sry.

 

thanks man. so i guess im dumb for using the ball shaped ones cuz it looks like what ur talking about conical shaped

 

For the most part... Aftermarket wheels = aftermarket lugnuts - Stock wheels = stock/OEM lugnuts.

 

looks like you did a good job on the wheels, now get some lugs and i lower drop and you will be looking kinda good

 

i dont know about a lower drop. these tires series are 5 smaller then stock that prob y the wheel gap looks bigger. i have a 2 inch drop i dont think i wanna go lower id scrap everywhere thats not functional lol not that a 2 inch drop is ethier but better then lower u know what i mean. epman we still have to meet somtime man

 

Dude I think that's low enough and it looks fresh now. I want to paint my stocks black

 

Wheels came out pretty good.. Nice job man..

 

Let me break it down for you:

1. We have an APC forum here, no need to fill the tech thread with DIY rim job

2. A Palm Treo and a Canon EOS Digital Rebel XSi are far from being $1300; even when you combine the cost of the two, you are no where near that price tag

3. Try again, junior

 

once again why are u tryn to be a dick. u could of least said hey the wheels turned out great but u posted this in the wrong section therefor i will move it.


and has for the camera buddy thats including the cost of the lens i used aswell.

 

here is a picture of that color when you put some light on it

 

"Again"? When have I been a dick in the past to you? If you remember a specific example, there appears to be a common denominator to our problem.


There is no way that your sister's lens cost $900, good try.

 

what the hell does it matter what the camera cost?? How would you know what type it is and what it cost? this thread is about his wheels not his sisters camera man.

 

You're an idiot, it's OK. I know exactly what camera he took the images with, and I have a pretty good idea which lens he used (Canon 18-200 f/3.5). Both of which, when combined, don't get you close to $1300.

see below: OP brought up the cost of the camera.


kthnxbye

 

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

not that it is of any relevance but the lense that you just stated he has runs 699.95 on cameta. add roughly 50 or more bucks if purchased at best buy, circuit city, etc. then add the body that you yourself KNOWS he has and its 589.95.....again add more if bought in store. he says its his sisters camera therefore she probably bought it in store and not craigslist, ebay, or some other online seller. no matter how you look at it, it does basically total 1300 bucks. NOT THAT IT F****** MATTERS!

to the original poster...........the quality looks good of the paint and work. good job man

 

one other thing. honda odyssey minivan center caps will fit perfectly and you can scoop them for cheap on ebay if you wanted to do that option

 

Wheels look great! Makes me wanna paint mine that color.

And who gives a crap about how much the camera costs? If it cost $1300 or $13 it should be no relevance to this thread and definitely not worth arguing about.

 

Thanks man, i had 2 sets of black wheels in the past and just had to have a change. im pretty happy with the results. and thanks everyone

 

Man sicky is a DICK! But it looks like you did a really good job on the paint... I personally think the wheels look too small for your car unless you lower it more..but you already stated you don't want to do that... I wish they made group n's in 16's

 

i might go to 205 60 15 and lower it some more. ill get megan racing coil overs. the way it is right now i can barely get the car on the lift at work. so ha idk how its going to turn out. will see
