Alright so I picked up some 15x7 aluminum cheapo wheels. I know they aren't the most bad ass thing but for $50 bucks I couldn't pass them up.



The game plan is doing purple wheels with polished lip, polished "H" Centers and chrome lugs.

I finally found the how-to on polishing wheels on here. I will be using this how to most likely.

Also any pointers in painting the wheels or polishing are more then welcome, my set of meshes I painted cracked (the paint not the wheels) so I know I have to do something different.

Also when doing a painted wheels then polishing them do you paint them first or polish first then tape off the lip?

Also are there any websites online that have actual paint colors, like that show the color chips? I'm looking for the right purple for me and I'm having a hell of a time finding a website that has colors

Layer the paint thinner w/ more layers, but less paint overall. Also, use a good clear coat.
