Default Bored with the black stock wheel finish.

Got tired with black. Had a new finish applied. Speckled metallic bronze. Depending on the lighting the car, color varies. Hard to get a good picture much better seen in person. I really do like the new finish!








Notice the metallic finish.

I'm sure it looks great in person. But in pix, it just looks like the wheels are covered in brake dust lol again, I bet they look really cool in person though

From the pics its really hard to tell. They definitely are different. I will try to get some pics on a sunny day. Its been June gloom for awhile in SoCal.

White would be great. Someone posted a picture few weeks ago and it was a knockout.
