Now that I see your wheels I'm wondering if I should leave the face of the spokes original and paint the sides like you did. What made you decide to paint the sides -vs- the face of the spokes?

Awesome, make sure you post some pictures up when you get them painted and put on .
Anyways I was debating on the sides or the face for a good 2 weeks, and in the end I didn't want too much green on my car, so I had a small car laying around and the rims were similar to the ones I bought, so I took two rims and painted the sides on one and the face on the other, then I just rolled them to see an example of how it would look spinning, and the sides show no green, just the lip and I thought that was great, especially surprising people when I stop lol.
In the end both looks were absolutely amazing, but the sides ended up winning just because it wasn't too much.

For you I think it looks great both ways, since the only gold you have are your stripes so it isn't like my green car, which wouldn't be too much, but basically just right.

Did you do the painting yourself? IF you had it done, would you mind telling me what you were charged?

Thanks for answering me!

I got it painted by the painter of the rim seller (speedDepot) did it all together right away so I wouldn't have to worry about it later, and if I remember correctly it was an extra $500 or $600 for all 4 wheels added to the total.
