Looks good but why do your rotors look all rusty? Don't you drive your car? Or is it that you don't use the brakes?

Merritt is from VA ......

And I thought she had a '98 R in C.W. so her wheels were white ..... I know, she used to go to MIR a lot for races.

I think I prefer the shinier black wheels.. the flat black looks good though.

I tried the shiny black and the problem is,
every single chipped off is VERY VERY VERY
noticeable and I hated it. For semi-gloss,
it looks exactly like steel rims, that's why
I went for flate black.

Try the shinny black yourself and you will
understand exactly what I meant.

They look like the cheap steel wheels you get for your winter tires.

Just paint another coat of black engine enamel. They will be a little more shiny, and the paint will resist heat.
