<<--------------------- just powder coated my rims---time attack style--lots of pics<

Whats up fourm members. I just had my rims powder coated time attack style. I am very happy with the new look. I was trying to go a different route, because the original style (black with a polished lip) was getting a littel played. Almost every car i see here in NYC has it. So I changed it up. I have had the car back for about 4days and i have seen a much more positive reaction to my car from random people, aswell as friends.


All images were rezied. The original were way to big...

I need something a little bit more to the side and right rear of the car looking forward. That would do it for me.

Let me say the rims look good! Very nice.

Really liked the chrome lip, the red trim reminds me of a civic nearby. The Mazdaspeed badges = sweetness!

I don't get black wheels. If you spend a thousand bucks on something, why do you want it to look like you've got just a huge tire sidewall :P

For me it's just to have something different from what's around me. Now I want to accent the rims with a red big brake kit, red lug nuts, etc.

The rims look really good. If you don't mind me asking, where did you get them done?
