Yup, some index cards and krylon flat black, have to redo them and get some aircraft paint remover to get the little overspray.

LOL I did that to my stock steelies but they were black already. I just jacked up the CRX and with 40 grit paper had a buddy spin the tires at about 10kmph. They were lipped up in 10 sec each. LOL.

Honestly, try a plunger, it sounds ghetto but im not joking, i did it on mine and my friends parents body shop workers and auto body teacher couldnt tell, it took like 3 seconds, if it doesnt work, no loss. But it could end up being alot easier then bangin it out.

What tire size are those Azenis?? They look really narrow. Awesome black steelies with polished lip. You need new rims.

The azenis are 195/60/14, yeah i know my rims are a little narrow, but these azenis still kick *** compared to the dood old venturas i had! the sidewalls are so stiff, i could immediately tell, right when i drove out of the parking lot, how stiff they were. my old tires used to make my car bounce, due my stiff rates, by now its just stiff and solid. i love these things!
