    Lol FYI, I painted one of those supposed 4 or whatever you're talking about. I have way more ideas than your mind can possibly imagine. This is one of many I will be doing. Oh btw, I painted these wheels cause they were free...Can't beat free instead of spending 600 bucks on some wheels that I'm just gonna repaint. And that little comment I wrote about not saying anything, was particularly for you...Mr. Touge Master.... I know people that would run your ass in the ground in a touge. Lol. You're just lucky they sold their cars and starting over. But whatever. Not in this to squabble with someone who thinks they're so much better...if you were so much better than me and my ideas, then you wouldn't have wasted your precious time to say anything to me now, would you? So thank you for letting me know this caught your attention, my job is finished.

    First off, i never said anything about the quality (this is also directed that the other people). Neither did i say anything about having to buy wheels or the cost of anything.

    But if you "have way more ideas than your mind can possibly imagine", then why didn't you exercise that on these wheels? Black w/blue lip? (hot!) , silver w/blue lip? Blue w/polished lip? Black w/lime green lip? Solid green (al la Takata)? I'm not the only one who clicked on that and thought 'another set?'
    You did a good job painting them, but it would be nice to some some risk taken in doing something different. I also never said anything about you painting any other sets, so where did that come from?

    Whats funny is somehow or another saying that black wheels with a red lip makes me better then [you]. Please explain this. How does commenting on saying something about an idea thats popping up everywhere 'make me better'? It doesn't. Never said i was or anything i have is better or compared anything from here to there.

    Well that makes a whole lotta sense now doesn't it??But since you are going to stand up for other people, then i invite you. Because saying something like that makes you better then me.

    I guess since im 'lucky' i should go play the lottery now, eh?


    BTW, what color is the car they are going on? I'd like to know and maybe help with suggestions, but that would 'make me better' if i voiced my opinion.

    That's acutally going on my girlfriend's car...either that or hot pink.

    Well I do plan on painting other wheels. These just came to me for free so I said why not?

    Well my car is red and black. Lol. That's why I'm doing it that color. But when I get my car painted a more neutral color than I'll change colors too. Unless I just change my wheel color anyways..

    I would, Lol. If I was a sponsored car. But I'm not so I won't. Haha. But these match my car color and I'm happy with them so it don't matter. But to be honest, if I was him I would paint my wheels green with an orange lip. Shit would be hot...

    lol, thought about it. But that would look odd if i ever take the vinyl off the car. I have some other ideas though.

    I really do want to see something different though. [from you]

    Yeah, I suppose it would but you could always repaint the wheels. And I have more idea's like I said. Black with takata green or black with hot pink lip, also had the black with blue lip idea. Or was gonna do white with a red lip, but these are for my girl's car since her's is black. Mine is red and black so it doen't go together too well. Haha.

    My shot at painting wheels. Never again, it's a pain in the ass to maintain. I'm in the process of polishing them now.Not completely original, but you don't see it often.

    Lol yeah I know he's sponsored, so what? I know people who aren't sponsored and are damn fast on touges and circuit for what they are. And I don't care what anyone says bout my car. I'll do what I will with what is mine. I know they look good and I know a lot of other people will think so too. But there are always the haters. It's okay. It's all good.
