well my stock tibby rims are fuxurd from curbs, and i cant find a replacement locally. so the past two winters ive driven the tib on the 17's. well i was at a friends house, and he had a set of american racing 15's that were a dual 4 lug.... i asked what size they were, he knew one was a 4x100, but didnt know the other. so i grabbed a piece of paper, held it to the underside of my spare tire, and traced the mounting holes. then held it up to the rims, and what do u know, same size!!!!!!

well even though i thought they were kinda fugly, i gave him 100 bux for them. well i decided with a bit of paint, they might not be so bad, so 30 minutes and 95 cents in paint, heres the outcome.

BEFORE!







~AND AFTER~





and leaning against the car just to get an idea.





not really sure how there gonna look yet, but ill know once i finish painting the rest, and mount some new tires on them. even if they look like crap, i really dont care, there winter rims, and will be alot nicer then my heavy ass 17's with ice skates for tires.....

 

Wow, nice job!

 

Yah nice painting job, but you should have just painted right ovver the AR lmao.

 

YES!

 

wow, they actually look really good.. i woulda painted the lip tho.. i know they are winter rims.. but i think that wulda looked better.. great deal on em too.. i wish i culd throw my 17s on at all, much less drive my car.. 02.gif

 

^ Pats all about the polished lip you dont even know.

 

by the way man, did you use that duplicolor wheel paint thats next to ur wheel? and thats the gloss black right?
if so, thats the new color my rims will be painted.. along with my spoiler..

 

i likes alot, those are actually pretty nice rims after paint, but u should have painted the centers so u didnt know they were AR till u got up on em.

 

I think I'll do the same think too. I love the random gaskets and hoses lying on your garage floor.

 

Wow really good looking with unpainted lip... I mean polished lip wink1.gif
