A good friend of mine painted the stock wheels of his Black Mk4 Jetta Purple. At first i didnt care for them, but they have grown quite a bit on me. I'll see if i can find a good pic.



*EDIT*

Found a good one





this is just after i washed it for him, i hadnt put tire shine on yet tho

Kinda makes them look like toys... I love the color but it's a big no-no.



It's a fad that belongs exclusively in Japan.
