    Black Steelies?

    Ok, winter is coming and i'm gonna throw the stealies on the car for winter, but i was thinking about painting them black since the silver metal finish is scummed up/surface rusted. Any thoughts?





    P.S., quick question to save space. When buying a rear valence, does it depend on your sheet metal valence (pre facelift/post etc) or bumper type? thought it was bumper type, just wanted to make sure.

    Dude, they are steel wheels. I honestly cannot believe you are asking such a useless and asinine question.

    To be honest, I don't think anyone gives 2 shits.

    Sorry to sound harsh, but but it's the truth.

        I have black steelies.

        Black steelies > Silver. I painted one that was silver black too.

        Sold it.

            I run silver ones but they are clean but then again I have hub caps on mine. I think Chris runs caps on his also.

                      Make them streched and wide y0.

                      Seriously that would look hot on an E30. Need to do a photoshop of that.

                        Not as bad as i'd imagined. I guess i titled the thread wrong, my main question is the valence one, now that i think about it.

                          Very old discussion. We talked about this last year. Stu told us about NASCAR shops that do this.

                            You're right, it does look pretty hot. They'd be pretty heavy wheels tho i'd say. Quick chop:
