    Well i might be painting my stock wheels sometime soon, because i got nothing else better to do. but i don't know what color to paint them, any suggestions?
    so far i'm considering a gloss black or a gun metal color

    thanks in advance for your inputs

    Wheels looks great man nice job!



    Tire shine = no traction IMO
