Painted My Stockers
Hey all,

Just pained my stock rims a few days ago. It was easier than I though it would be, thanks to a few DIYs. I like the way they came out. What you guys think? Sorry for the crappy camera phone pics :/ I'm trying to find a DSLr for sale

Yeah, I'm in the market for some coilovers and some spacers at the moment. Would've bought new rims, but I'm going to be buying a 2012 STi when they finally come out.

They look alright I guess, I dont think I would have gone green its a little out of place on stock wheels.

Next time you get tires mounted they will balance the wheel again and the weights will be moved and expose the original paint.

Not worried about it. Like I said I'm buying a 2012 STi, which should be out sometime in August or a little later. Thanks for the concern......

If you're getting a new car, you selling the 8? Why hurt it's resale value with green wheels?
