Well finally found a set of SS/TC wheels!!! I bought them for $140, what a steal right? But they did need a lot of work. So happy I bought them! I walk out to my car with a smile on my face. I painted them gunmetal, what do you guys think? They are factory tires 215/45/18s.

 

I was wondering if they were going to be SS/TC wheels when I saw the title, congrats. How bad were they that they needed so much work?

Now if you just fix that blemish on the front bumper the car will look great, well and maybe a set of Depo black housing headlights.

 

yeah jesus... were they broken in half?

 

All of them were curbed up. Some so bad that I needed to add a little bodyfiller. But got them looking brandnew after a day of bodywork.

Hopefully the car will be getting painted this summer ( same color ). When I do I will be purchasing black housing headlights, lnf front grille, tinted taillights, and Black SS inlays for the badges. Getting these wheels got me excited about my car again.

They were curbed up real bad.

 

Completly changes the car. You painted or powder coated?

 

I painted them myself. How they look up close.

 

Very nice. Makes me want tc wheels even more

 

Ya, found these on craigslist, called right away and told him im coming right know with cash lol

 

looks good, and cant beat that price. not hard to fix up some curb rash

 

It is when you want to polish them though like I'm doing, my set was perfect.

 

Thanks guys. I bought some caliper paint, going to paint them tomorrow red. Should look good. If I wasn't tired id do it tonight lol .

 

All washed.

 

looking good , need a mount for that plate lmao ... looks like its flopping in the wind.


i use my lnf wheels for winter ... no one like that idea lmao

 

Zip ties hold that plate down strong

I don't like that idea either lol Should've went and bought some cheap LSJ wheels for winter.

 

Nice

 

How did you paint them? I wouldn't mind doing this to my SS/TC rims lol.

 

dupicolor gunmetal wheel paint, and clear coat.

 

Looks great man. I might need you to paint my wheels now haha. You use a gun or cans?

 

Great deal, painted headlights and a LNF grille and you'll be stylin

 

I just used cans. The tire shop did chip up my wheels a little, so next time i think ill be painting them with a gun. To make them look good, its real simple, fix all the curb rash, then wet sand with 600, and then use wax and grease remover before spraying. If you ever need help, give me a call.

And a paint job and its set. I cant wait!

 

Kinda hard to see them in the pics. Great color choice, gun metal looks awesome on silver.

 

Once i paint the calipers ill post more pics in the sunlight. But thanks. I walk out to my car every single time with a smile.

 

Dammit. How am I supposed to tell the difference between the SCs and the TCs when I see them driving around with everyone swapping wheels. Oh the humanity!

Jk, they look good.

 

I know! But if your behind my car, it says "Supercharged'' On the 3rd brake light. so you'll know lmao.

 

What color are you going to do the calipers?
