About repairing the curb rash on my wheels. When I watched MCM’s video on repairing damaged wheels, it got me thinking about taking that opportunity to paint my wheels.

My car is silver, so the only two colors that would look remotely good are silver or black. I wish it were white so I could do white wheels, but alas, it isn’t.

What does Oppo think about this [quick photoshop]?

GOLD WHEELS WORK TOO

Go black! Just do it right, apply a lot of layers and add glossifier. Nothing looks as crappy as a bad plastidip job.

Maybe on an STi, but on a car that has little performance capabilities outside its inherent suspension setup, it would look a little ricey.

I wouldn’t use Plastidip because I heard you wouldn’t be able to tell if the wheel is cracked underneath. If I were to paint my wheels, I’d use wheel paint.

HondaBro, get super silver wheels. Like really, really silver.

Couldn’t you tell by losing air pressure and feeling wheel shake at highway speeds from being out of round? Either way wheel paint is probably the best way to go, I just said Plastidip because you said you were inspired by the previous post.

Like this?

Not a bad look, TBH. Maybe if I also lowered it a bit, it would look better.

Yeah not bad. Maybe I’ll do black with a very thin bronze tint.
