Two Tone LT rims

This is the first rim i did. didn't take my time w/ the tape job so i paid for it in the end. The second wheel i did came out 10 times better. then, i ran out of paint lol. more pics and completed look on car tomorrow

if you dont like it, don't look at it. It matches my interior perfectly.

pics on car wooh.

Not a fan of painting tiny factory wheels, might as well put some spinning hubcaps on there

That doesn't look bad. I'd have to see it on the car. Actually these would look sweet with the face painted black and the red part polished aluminum instead.

Matches your interior nicely. You should def paint the middle of the wheels though, including the nuts. Paint it all black, you have enough red on your rims.

btw are those the standard 16" rims?
