    yeah that is what I was thinking. I dig the big polished lip but it might look even better all black :). I guess I am thinking of new ideas before I get them and mount them. I guess we will just have to wait and see...

          The acs s3 patern that vlad had on his car would look clean with your wheels.

          Edit: To slow.

            lets see some pics :). The only thing stoping me is missing out on that big blingin lip. But all black just means business to me and I like that :). Who knows, well if all goes to plan I should have the new rims in a week or so we will see.

            I really want to powercoat them but might have to DIY paint them, any tips or advice?

              Don't paint them yourself, you'll never be happy with the finish. Either keep them the way they are or powdercoat them.

                I think you should do it too, it will set your car apart from all the other
                guys running sport max's, which is starting to be alot.

                Here's some pics, you could even anodize the whole lip red, I think that would look even better on a stepped lip wheel.

                    Thanks guys, to bad man I already did it haha, nah I haven't yet but might have to wait for more funds to roll in to do it right the first time and get them powercoated. Who know's we will see, either way it will look good I am sure.

                          Powder coating ? Anodizing ? Two-tone ?

                          Pfft !! He'll be spending more on painting the wheels than he did to buy them . :D

                            yeah seriously haha. I know powder coating is the way to go so I might have to hold off for now. I guess it all depends on how much I get the rims for. My buddies shop should become a local sportmax dealer and I should be getting a solid deal. If so then I might consider :)

                            Thanks guys...
