Powder coating your rims is the best solution but the good thing about DIY is that you don't have to leave your wheels with people you don't know

These wheels look awsome. Where can you buy wheel center caps to finish off that beautiful paint job?

Like these maybe

when is anyone ever gonna see the back of the wheel? Maybe at the local tire shop when they take them off to replace the rubber. Or is someone gonna get on there stomach and look under the car to inspect them.

What's the nearest off the shelf Aerosol spray wheel paint color for the 2009 Taffa White Fit. On white cars with white wheels, I feel the color must be a perfect match with the body to look good.

Anyone got any pics of white wheels on a white fit.

How do you go about painting a red rim on the outer dia of the wheel or can you buy them to stick on

I normally HATE pink, but that looks kinda gangster with the background painted. I thought about painting the background Gunmetal to match the rest of my vehicles, but leave the machined face clear/polished like that.
