krayjeegsr Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Painted some BRZ wheels gold, gonna put them on OBP leggy. Came out pretty nice.

dryvby Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Looks good, much better than the stock look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drift Motion Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Looks good, much better than the stock look. this hope you did some prep work in between the shots, before painting pics on the car? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim_KT Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Looks good! The BRZ wheels as they rolled off the factory floor leave a lot to be desired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

end0 Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 did you put a clear coat over top? This. And how many coats of gold/clear(if any clear)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krayjeegsr Posted November 11, 2012 Author Share Posted November 11, 2012 6 light coats of gold, 3 coats of clear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboLag23 Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 Damn, this looks nice!!!! Much better than stock, as previously stated. Those stockers look weird with the silver and gloss black. I could actually see this monotone BRZ wheel look catching on. Gunmetal or bronze would also look really good on these. They would make a great alternative to 2011 WRX wheels.

NSFW Posted November 11, 2012 Share Posted November 11, 2012 What are the dimensions of those wheels? Diameter, width, offset? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silinc3r Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 A lot going on but for sure much better than how they looked stock. If the car was a little lower I am sure it would change the look a little more. Silinc3r's 05 SWP GT/Spec B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissJapaneseSubaru Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 Looks pretty awesome. I like the look on the black. Maybe even on a white car would look good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alegend90 Posted November 25, 2012 Share Posted November 25, 2012 they look better gold and on an LGT instead of on a BRZ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theflystyle Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 i would only use them as winter wheels due to their minimal width. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aac0036 Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 The offset for these is +48 though as opposed to +55, right? Any pictures of this fitment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LatentWagen Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Gold looks eleventy billion times better than the OEM paint scheme. If I got a BRZ that would be my first move. White on Gold would be LW's spec. B / YT / IG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chameleon Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I dont like the brz wheels but they look much better painted ... Results look great ... pays off to prep and take your time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
