WTF IS that guy thinking?

notes:

but the money is how he did it.

There's nothing worse than black wheels with a red ring. I don't understand why that scheme has gotten so popular.

HyperTek · 10-31-2008, 08:43 PM

thats not so bad..
bad enough his car is a wannabe M

shishcabobers · 10-31-2008, 08:43 PM

nah dude they are

[w]hite[r]abbit[x] · 10-31-2008, 08:47 PM

What a noob. He should've taken the wheels off and put the car on jackstands. This would've allowed him to better clean and prep the wheels before paint. This guy did a half ass job and got paint all over the brake rotors.

***S14DB*** · 10-31-2008, 08:53 PM

Way to foul the brake pads...

brewster240 · 10-31-2008, 09:01 PM

at least he painted the brakes and tires too.

nothing like being thorough.

drifter808 · 10-31-2008, 09:05 PM

this has gotten pretty popular here ( at least Big Island) with all the Honda's. I always see bone stock civics with ime attack paint scheme on stock rims.

mkiv98 · 10-31-2008, 09:18 PM

my god, epic fail

projekt_s13 · 10-31-2008, 09:21 PM

God i hate those dumb checker flag decals, and the guy is an idiot for not masking the tires and removing the wheels before painting. But they do look better then before.

Somewhats agree, agree and agree.

The checker decal can be pulled off if you have a dedicated track car, but thats about it.

Yes he is. My BMW wheels are getting painted too, but its the set I have off the car right now. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.

And yeah, IDK what it is, but alot of stock BMW wheels, like from 99 and up, look like crap. I like the old bbs meshies better than the newer flat 7 spokes. And they dont look too bad for being cheapo knockoffs.

BustedS13 · 10-31-2008, 09:41 PM

the generic checkered flag decal sucks. the nismo checkery thing is rad

and that looks awful, looked much better stock :/

aziankingz · 10-31-2008, 10:53 PM

hes going to wonder why its so hard to brake soon..

HyperTek · 10-31-2008, 11:05 PM

wont do shit to the brakes.. you guys dont know much huh.. once he drives it, the paint will get rubbed off.. it wont fuse with the pads , will just get burned off. wont be a serious problem.

painting stock wheels is still not that cool, end result is they are still stock wheels lmao

oh shit i never knew that haha i saw a guy down the street with a green stripe on his i was like wtf and shaking my head as i drove by

Andrew Bohan · 10-31-2008, 11:16 PM

black wheels and red stripe ftw!

and red stripe just wins in general anyway!

HyperTek · 10-31-2008, 11:17 PM

funny i was jus lookin at these on ebay

BustedS13 · 11-01-2008, 02:03 AM

there's a canadian hatch on here with black wheels/red stripe. i think they're work emotions, i dunno, i don't keep up on wheel names. but it's a hot car. it's probably the only example i can think of where those look good.

worangejuice · 11-01-2008, 02:06 AM

you know this guy'll smoke all of you !!!!!!! hollerr!!!!!!jkjkjkjkjkjk, holklerrrrrrr

a retard like you shouldnt be telling people they dont know much.

the paint could cause problems such as glazing of that pads etc, which is a problem.

painting of stock wheels is still cooler then you.

Man i like how the guy didnt take the 2 mins to take the rims off the car. lol wtf

Kn1ves · 11-01-2008, 07:35 AM

Since the sticker is ON the wheel, there is no HP loss.

+15WHP

shinhed · 11-01-2008, 08:16 AM

I kinda like'em (braces for neg reps).

Oh...wait..wait a minute, there's no longer a rep system?!?! In that case...

I think it looks fucking great!!!!!!!!!!

IIIXziuR · 11-01-2008, 08:47 AM

The red stripe with the black wheel looks horrible.
And that checkered flag decal above the head lamp area is equally as bad.
WTF would you do that?

jackjack · 11-01-2008, 09:58 AM

ungh

no

just no

ZX88 · 11-01-2008, 10:01 AM

damn baller status right there. lol

***FaLKoN240*** · 11-01-2008, 10:25 AM
