Yeah at least deflate the tire a bit and stick playing cards all around it, lazy! Nuts and all! That sounds bad.. I see this on a lot in CA, spend money to have a POS fart can put on, put horrible decals on, buy really shit wheels and rattle can them. I don’t get it! Do they think the ladies will start flowing??

I literally thought this was a joke about how to make it look like you had stretch/poke wheels. Then I realized it was actually a genius masking idea.

Oh come on now - - at least there’s *some* black showing on the tire.

I got some tires mounted at the local vocational high school the other day and tried to show them how to measure the holes on the rims. Mine are 5x4.75... Complete lack of awareness or interest. No, maybe one or two of them were mildly curious.

And, on an added note, I’ve had a crappy day, and between the outer space comment, and the picture using playing cards to mask wheels, this entire thread is one of the highlights of my day.

You dont always get the wheels you want. I bought a set of purple with chrome lipped wheels because they were so damn cheap. Painted them whie and called it a day.

The nuts are the issue, for me. I guess technically you could prep a rim in place but then the nuts have to be wrapped in tape and that will create a shadow in painting that will probably be where the paint starts to peel out first, and will look like shit and also it takes forever to get the tape off the nuts. Getting tape off nuts is a time consuming and painful process kids.

I notice that you saved paint and money by not wasting any on the actual tire.

Yes about the wheels. The ones I have were $75 the set and turn out to have come from an S-10 pickup, which is appropriate. But I can’t bear to consider affixing the plastic center caps with the Chevrolet insignia to my GMC van.

No, he’s not - his rant today was well-justified, unfortunately. I’m just annoyed because work has been stressful lately, and is showing no signs of letting up. Toss in a cow-orker who doesn’t seem to care, and it’s enough for a day - - hope it works out for you, and fast!

Toss in a coworker who is actively trying to ruin you and assassinate your character and get you terminated because no reason and it can make for a bad week. +1 if you never met them before twelve weeks ago. +2 if they can get you escorted out of your workplace on paid administrative leave over unsubstantiated allegations. +3 if you don’t get to have the allegations read to you. +4 if you are a male teacher and they can make things up and call CPS and try and get you investigated. There are ways to earn +5 and +6, but I don’t want to post them here. Paid vacation with a headache.

I’m sure a Toyota V8 has room for improvement, I like them, I remember when they came out and I thought it was like nothing I had ever seen. I see some cool Soarers in Japan, would be a nice tourer. I’m sort of a Nissan person I guess now, I may get a used G37s someday.

I saw a car recently with wheels painted black, and I’m quite certain they didn’t mask the tires AT ALL when they painted. Because it was black, it was hard to tell from afar. But I could tell. Ohhh I could tell.
