Painted Stock g37 sport wheels.

Painted my g37 sport wheels this weekend. Came out pretty good I would say. It took a while to do..it's pretty time consuming if you want to do it right. I'm interested in how long it will last. Here's some pics..

5mm up front to clear brembos. I don't know if I should get spacers because I don't know how long these will last, then when I get new wheels I will get the right offset so I wont need the spacers.

yeah forreal....it doesnt look like you're dropped any, no? id think 20/25 would be sufficient to a close flush look but if you drop it you wanna get closer to a final zero offset

Yeah I know, but I didn't want to spend the money for powdercoat...I'm going to get new wheels in the next few months anyways. But for now I think it looks pretty good

Yeah I know. The drivers side wheels both front and back are bent...they don't leak air or anything, so I left them alone
