Different Wheels
Got this idea from a new Challenger that I saw on the street. I see a lot of murdered wheels but that is just it....they are al black! I decided to be different and have the inner part of the wheels painted red. I had a body shop do them. There are 3 coats of acrylic enamel on the red and the black, and three heavy coats of clear. I decided to leave the center cap and the lugs chrome. I dont know about that yet. They are durable and easy to keep clean. What do ya'll think?

I dont like the chrome centers or. Lugnuts. I think it looks ok. Im not super crazy about it. If ot were me and i was trying to be different i woulda went with like a lime green instead of red. But i think one color on a rim is enough. But its not ugly

Yea. Im changing my vote now that i see it from the side and all together. Lime green would still be sweet. But it actually looks pretty slick

I like it dale. Never seen it done before. And like you said, it gives it contrast.

I can dig it. It's different but not gaudy. I would go black with the centers tho.
