Debating on doing that, just need some wheels to run on in the mean time.

they do it same day it doesnt take that long. why not just paint them? mine are painted and they look tits. i've painted a bunch of other cobalts wheels as well including tc wheels and they came out great. i did a matte black with a light clear coat on t/c wheels they came out awesome.

get a deck of playing cards and put tire shine on the tire. shove the cards in the bead and wipe the tire off afterwards. works like a charm.

Hmm interesting idea, whats with the tire shine?

Puts a layer of "wax" over the tire that the paint will stick to instead of sticking to the tire. Letting you wipe any over-spray off after you get done.

Oh nice.

I need to do a little dremel work when the tire is off too sadly.

why's that? you can sand it down to an even finish with 200 grit with an orbital sander. that's what i do if I ever rash a wheel.

Wanna make the outer edge a little softer, its pretty sharp after getting mauled by that curb.
