Most people just sand it a bit. Removing it all is generally too tedious to do by hand.

 

what kind of paint did you use for this

 

i use duplicolor wheel paint

 

just a horrible camera phone

 

Has anybody seen this tc wheel covers? They are crome but would be perfect for people who dont want to mess up factory wheel finish or just tired of their painted stockies. Thinking about getting me a set even though my stock wheels just collecting dust right now.

Not sure about the cover tho, but here is a good way to paint your rims without messin up the factory finish... Google and youtube "plasti dip" in case you havent heard of it. Jst wanting to share this since it doesnt require sanding the wheels. Plasti dip is a ruber finish you spray ontop of the factory finish, you can pill it off at anytime to paint the rims a different color.

 

Duplicolor engine enamel - grabber green & 2 coats of clear!

 

Color came out nice...but because of a certain someone on here im just so used to seeing this combo slammed lol...lower please

 

hahah
"imitation is the sincerest form of flattery"
but yes...i plan to go even lower, I dunno about slammed though.

 

My rs 2.0

 

nice solid green color

 

first rs4.0 with white stockies??

 

I have a set of these just sitting in my garage

 

That looks nice! Is that masking tape you used to seal off the parts of the tire? I can't really tell.

 

You should send me one, if it's the silver version.

@baltom those are the factory option Enkei Super 7's but painted black. The RS1 did come with a black finish but the silver was a dealer add-on option.

 

I like my stockies.

 

Tried to do it simple. Thinking of doing a different color but not sure yet.

 

Plastidipped the rims this weekend to see if I'd like em. I do.

 

Did u use glossifier?

Yes, about 2-3 coats. Hopefully enough for me to keep them clean easier.
