You should powdercoat them a gloss silver or gold first IMO.

Nah they were powdercoated before to be flat black with that blue pinstripe. They shine nice with baby oil on them but that was right after a bath. Can't complain for 700 bucks with tires ill still be under a grand after repowdercoating later this year

ya the exhaust has actually been on since right after import alliance which was april 17th. and ya i put some baby oil on two of the rims so ill be glad to post some pics tomorrow. they don't have that rattle can look with the oil, just nice and shiny! good little trick for anyone with flat black that looks kinda chalky... pics for yall tomorrow!!!!

and plus im a deal shopper, got the exhaust for 200 and wheels for 700. spent 100 in gas on way to jacksonville. not a bad 1k investment

ok so here is what i was talking about, a good shot of the rim right after washing and how it gets water spotted and a very chalky appearance.



ok and here is the finished result, johnson and johnson baby oil was used to make them shine. use this when tire shine and waxes dont shine the wheels. temp fix if you get a good deal on wheels like me

Ooooooh, OK. I retract my last statement then. They look much better when "oiled" up. Big difference.
