16" Rota Grids dipped in black matte, silver metalizer, and glossifier...

[stuntdoogie]

2 cans of black about 4 coats.
1 can of metalizer 1 coat
1 can of glossifier 2 coats

Gonna try another coat or two of glossifier to get a lil more bling tonite.

Wheels are on, color came out grey. Not really happy with the color but at least hides the brake dust well. My car is dirty and havnt had time to wash it. Will post pics when I do in a better atmosphere.

I love it! How's the ride on 16" wheels?

 

[stuntdoogie]

Love the ride! Acceleration feels great. It was a necessity where I live. Im sacrificing some road feel and probably handeling with the softer suspension setting and 50series tires but for me its worth it. Dont feel most cracks, and expansion joints like I used to. But at my current ride height the front rubs on big bumps and dips with 15 from soft damper settings. May have to raise it up a bit.

aren`t they be coming grey because you used "silver'' metalizer????

 

[stuntdoogie]

Yes but i over did it lol

 

[FineTooned]

what size tires are you running? they look like they have a taller sidewall than my 205/45R16 tires.

 

[stuntdoogie]

205/50/16

That looks good! They fill the space nicely.

A little too snug of a fit...they rub in the front. Tires are to big for this car.

I really like this, good job!

Were, when, and how do they rub? I plan on going to a 24.5" slick for next years drag season and that tire is a 24.1" and I was wondering what I need to look out for. Also it looks like the car is lowered right? Think it would rub if it was not lowered?


Thanks

You should be fine at stock height. The tire rubs the fender when turning on uneven surfaces or big bumps and yes im lowered. I might get away with a 195/50/16 or the recommended tires size 205/45.

Curious. Where did you purchase these through? I can't seem to find anyone carrying them.
