    That...looks freakin sweet. I redid my basketweaves last year to gunmetal centers with a silver lip...but when it comes to refinish I'll do this if its fine with you. It would look sweet on a schwartz.

    No longer stock ride height, rolling as low as a daily driver in New England should without worrying about breaking an oil pan. :up:

              WOW! Thanks everyone. I honestly didnt expect a response like this.

              Paint wise, I used a brand my friend suggested....RUST-OLEUM 'PAINTERS TOUCH' from OSH. It took me about 5 hours to paint them and 2 hours or so to sand the faces. I just used a rough grit for now, deciding if I want to really polish them.

              My friend also actually told me to sand the outer lip also, Im thinking about it. It would brake up the rim to tire transition pretty good.

              I dont mind at all if anyone does this same style...just as long as you do what Kellie suggested and name it the VALLEY scheme.8)


              THANKS AGAIN EVRYONE!

                Do you have caps? Cause the caps look badass 50/50 as well.
                Yeah, Ill get around to doing the same thing with them...just got lazy.

                Wow, 14" basket's have never looked better!!
                My original plan was to paint them like the rims in your sig, but again got too lazy to polish the lips.

                Well I guess Im the first to say I dont really like the look. I would have done the lip before that. SOOOORrry!
                Its all hood. your car's dope by the way.

                            Never saw those. I dig them. Nice work. Maybe dont do the whole lip, but just the outer rim like 1/4"
