18'' SS Wheels.

To be honest, Im not happy with the wheel's finish, a lot of minor imperfections, I will be considering refinishing them soon, probably a hyperblack/grey finish to match my paint.

Oh and yes, I have so-so parking skills. LOL

 

look pretty nice.... should tint the windows though

 

Look good... I prefer the Gunmetal of my rims (the 05's) over the chrome look though.

 

i have a set of gunmetals for sale!! 350$$ it would look sweet on the dark grey metallic...and the tint would look great, i had my 08 malibu, same color, tinted, looks ******* awesome.

 

anybody else have the paint start to bubble and flake off on their rims too?

 

Yeah

 

Yep... should be able to get them warrantied...

 

what type of springs do have USMC???

 

Eibach Sportlines...

...I kinda wish I didn't have them. Roads have gone to **** in my town in the last 2 years. Makes for a rough ride. Not to mention my slightly wider tires rub like crazy now.

 

What would be the best way to refinish them to be simliar to gunmetal?

 

the finish on my rims wore off in a circular even pattern around the rim, at the farthest point towards the middle, and around the spokes too. it was repairable under warranty, i just never got around to it.


duplicolor sells a spray paint for wheels specifically. silver, bronze, black, white, graphite. i dont know how the quality would be, i like duplicolor products though.

 

good to know... i was thinking about sportlines but the roads here in Calgary are ****. the constant weather changes have really killed the streets. just how wide are your tires 235?

 

Did your TPMS work with the rims?

 

LOL. no, but the strange thing is, the TMPS is acting like nothing changed. I know for a fact that the Pirellis are at 40ish PSI, but the TMPS is saying 23.

But the thing is, there are not sensors in the tires.....

 

looks nice, but id loose the side molding.

 

i like my gunmetal finish.. but i'm kinda feelin the polished finish with that color of a car looks good, and if u do decide to changeit post pics

 

yea i live in philly roads are mess up around here thats why i took the tenzos off and put the stock ones back on

 

has anybody used the new duplicolor rim paint?
