To each their own. I think is interesting. I think my personal preferance would be with the rims still showing metal, the spokes painted. I just kinda prefer some aluminum showing. Yours still look good, I'd have done a little different, the graphite color is good tho. Anything goes, screw concours...

Look great. I like the all painted look sometimes. Something similar but in black would have looked great on my old car.

Thanks guys. I was going to do just the spokes, kinda of a take on Fuchs.
I didn't feel like it would look "right" with the way these wheels are designed. My secret: The new Dupli-color wheel paint. Simply scuffed the wheels and sanded out some light curb damage from the PO.(How do people curb wheels, anyway?) Three light coats front and back. Had them done in 24 hours with the dry time. Now I have to do the driver's side! The wifey is going to paint the center cap crests next weekend. Wayne My car is FAR from concours, BTW.
