Default Painted my fat fives over the weekend using duplicolor bronze

My wheels were chipping the clear coat and paint so I decided to paint them. I have new tires from the previous owner (1slocrx thanks Tony). So I thought hey why not give them a painting. I think they came out good for the time and $$ I spent. Let me know what you think. Thanks!

I suck at the Internet could someone post these? Thanks!
