Wheels turned out great. I say get rid of those stupid covers on the lugnuts. Will look so much better without them.

I actually didn't do them myself. I had a body shop do the work for me (New Tires + Installation = Fucked up rims = new paint job on rims) I didn't pay to have them done. My garage scored all 4 of the rims and in efforts not to lose my business he took care of the bill to get them fixed.

As far as I know for procedure they scuffed them up with 400 grit or softer. Taped the tires off and sprayed a base/clear paint on them.

only took a couple hours once they got the tape to stick to the tires.
