Rexwagon Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Ok so I got some new wheels that I bought off a friend. They are mint. But I am starting to think I dont like them. They are Drag DR-8. 17x7 +40 offset. I dont like the chrome center. So should I Paint the centers? Or should I get some Vinyl for the centers and paint the center caps? Or Paint the center and Lip black? Just looking for advice. I am think of doing vinyl But I am not sure if it will hold up to the brake heat? I bought these for cheap so I am not worried about painting the wheels and not lasting, plus they are drags, lol, not baller jdm wheels. Pics arent the greatest from my phone but you get the idea. http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m133/rexwagon/IMAG0093.jpg http://i103.photobucket.com/albums/m133/rexwagon/IMAG0092.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottyg7171 Posted May 7, 2011 Share Posted May 7, 2011 I would say sell them and go back to stock. Those are pretty hideous! Wait and save up for something you actually like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That won't be nearly as bad. But what you got now is just not working IMHO. Sorry, don't mean to be rude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
