I'm watching Transformers ROTF and I am now thinking these are some damn nice wheels. They will look great on your car Tag

Man...I'm getting hungry....lol

and sleepy too...I need some coffee.....

The indention is on the outermost lip of the ZL wheel...basically the orange painted part is indented into the wheel ever so slightly. But, in that picture, the orange strip is much narrower than the blue stripe in the photoshopped pic that I put up. do you all think that thickness of stripe is sufficient? Or, none at all? Or, do you think the stripe should just be painted over with CGM?

You might just have to flip a coin, gonna look good either way.

Go with the black and widen them now!

Those'll look badass.

*TAG UR IT* · 03-10-2010, 11:21 PM

God, I want to widen! Someone give me some MONEY!!!

I figure I'm going to get the ZL wheel shipped tomorrow and have them paint them CGM for sure. The outer ring...I have no freakin' clue. It's going to come painted orange, but I HAVE to do something about that. I DO NOT want ORANGE on my wheel.....it goes with NOTHING on my car.

So, what do I do?

Paint that outer ring that is already orange Cyber gray metallic? Do I paint it Silver Ice metallic? Do I paint it blue? If I go CGM, will that be too dark as the CGM ring will be right up against the wheel and the black wheel might drown it out? If I paint it SIM, will the SIM clash with the already bright polished spokes? If I paint it blue, will it be toooo gaudy and stand out too much?

I hate these decisions!!!

*Mindz* · 03-10-2010, 11:26 PM

Paint the ring CGM, paint the inside of the spokes SIM and the outline of the spokes CGM.

*TAG UR IT* · 03-11-2010, 12:57 AM

Already tried that chop. I thought it would look pretty cool.

WOAH! hehehe....then again, it was a PS. But, it looked WEIRD!

*TAG UR IT* · 03-11-2010, 01:08 AM

Found'em. didn't come out too well. And the blue is off too.

*Mindz* · 03-11-2010, 01:30 AM

ok, thin pinstripe blue. and maybe small rings around the lug nuts blue.

Otherwise paint the pinstripe SIM and it's done imho.

*TAG UR IT* · 03-11-2010, 12:51 PM

WHEELS HAVE BEEN PURCHASED!!! They are going to be heading out the door to Tom Henry's either today or tomorrow morning.

Jeez....it's about time!

WOO HOO!!!

thecamaroguy · 03-11-2010, 12:54 PM

Which ones?

*TAG UR IT* · 03-11-2010, 01:02 PM

I bought a set of the blemished ZL wheels which we are going to paint. (no ZL caps are being sent w/ the wheel...FYI for those that really want them, they won't sell them...for SLP cars ONLY). I'm pretty lucky getting the "blem" wheels....love the look...and with the paint we are going to do, should REALLY stand out!
