    Looks great. Well done.

    I think the rims you are referring to are the R90s. Keep in mind they are HEAVY, like most other stock rims. You'll notice a difference compared to those little ones...

    Nice job. I think the wheels you mean are the ones on RDNZL. I just recently saw a set somewhere going fairly cheap with tires.

    I split mine and had them powdercoated and them reasemble with new hardware.

    Cheers
    Mr. Jim

    Well that sucks about the wheels i really like the style wheel. I defiantly cannot have a heavy wheel. I need something light. Crap!!! Thanks for the info tho....

    your rims would look great matte/flat black, why not just do it your self?

    I did my S-lights in 5(ish) hours. Washed sanded, prepped, cleaned again and then on to paint a primer.

    Your wheels look great!!!! I almost purchase the S lights and i found out they were very heavy and i decided against it. I like my wheels okay, but i would like 17's for sure....
    That was the process we did for all the chrome we painted a lot of sanding. Even wet sanded and buffed my headlights.
