Got bored...so I bought some new kick *** wheels.
Well, just a couple of sneak peek pics of the new wheels. Jenn will be taking some better pictures soon 
Wheels- Enkei NT03+M 17x7.5 +39 hyperblack finish 16lb each.
And I decided to see what some blue would look like against the titanium. These are my trackslut wheels... Rota SubZero 17x7.5 with 235-40/17 Hankook slicks.
Mmmmmm spraypaint.
I know the middle pic is kinda grainy, but it's simply to reference how wide the tires are.

Damn, why didn't you mention you were wanting some Enkei's?
I'll let you know how much you could have gotten them from me for:
$200/Ea shipped.
I can do the silver ones for $175/Ea Shipped.
And the Hyper Black should be 17X7.5 45offset. The silver have 45 and 40mm offsets. 17lbs each.

But it's not even about how much they are going for. They just popped up on CL and I couldn't pass them up..... esp. given the fact that i've always wanted a set buy they've always been on the more expensive side of my price range.

I dunno lol
I just grabbed some med-dark blue paint at Autozone, my intention really wasn't to pretty much match the "Volk mag blue" either, I wanted something brighter but this works.
As for prep, I just wiped the wheels down with a good acidic wheel cleaner and put a good slathering of tire shine on the tires to make overspray come off easier. Oh, and i used note cards between the tire and rim. But I don't sand down and do all thast junk... it's not needed as you can clearly see. It's all in the paint technique.
