I recently fitted some coilovers to the ol girl and thought it was about time I gave her some new shoes too but coming into xmas bit short on wheel funds so thought i'd give this a crack.

The wheels that came with my 32 4 door were haggered and just looked plain shit so I thought i'd respray them while I save for some 33GTR wheels.

Anyway threw on some paint stripper a few times which helped get all the old crap off.

And started at 80grit wet/dry and worked up to 2000grit wet/dry with various increments working off gutter rash and small dents. Was going to bog a few larger rashes but the wheels are nothing special so thought eff it.

While doing all this I hadn't really thought of a colour to go for the finish but while stripping it back there was a lot of white underneath and thought i'd give that a go seeing as all ive had is black wheels before.

Gave the tyres a rough tape up job because getting new tyres in a fortnight anyway.

So a few coats of etch primer and and a few of burn your eyes out white this is how they came out.

Not a bad result for $80 of paint primer and emery paper.

Haha Yeh thought it'd bring a few lulz.

If I could be bothered I'd have spent more time sanding but was hot as shit past few days and they only look like bob Jane specialties lol

your rim jobs would make you popular in the big house.

$80 is quite cheap for a decent rim job.
