    Im getting my winter set of wheels/tire ready to go. The clear coat was peeling some on these rims so i decided to sand them down and paint them. I dunno if i want to do them in black or gunmetal. They'll be goin on a red truck. Kinda funny my truck will actually be lower with these compared to my summer rims. lol

    I would say I agree, why paint them if they're winter wheels. But I pianted mine so I can't say anything. :lol: I like the gun metal better.

    i say paint the cut outs black or red, then just leave the sanded face.

    i think raw aluminum is sexy.
