you should have taken off the wheel balancing weight before you painted it, cause if it ever falls off, or has to be rebanced, the wheel will have a spot you missed.

Different colored wheels?

Is that the new overnight from Japan fad?

ive seen a few people do it before but with different wheels. lexani's on hondas mostly. not sure how jdm it is but meh. its not like i did it for the jdm anyways. the red ring was inspired by the special edition ce28 though.

as for the weight. thats how it was painted before. plus when i get them rebalenced with my new tires (eventualy) ill have the weights inside and ill just redo the paint. its not like home cheapo will run out of rustoleum any time soon

as for pics of the wheels on my ride if it wasnt onjackstands right now then i would. they still need to be wet sanded and cleared

Jason has his finger on the pulse of Tokyo...or something. If you can't have a little fun with paint on a project car, you're being too serious :)
