Saturday, November 08, 2008 7:24 PM
Well first off i know not everyone is a fan of the SRT rims... but i always seemed to like them on a J, so when i got a chance to buy some for about 85 bucks i couldnt say no



but lemme know what you think Good/bad







the only damage i found


hours of sanding later


after primer laid down botom coat of sunburst orange




hour of carefull tape later and some black to finish it off


Sorry bout the bad pics... Cell phone... ill post some beter pics when balanced and put on

Still not a fan of those rims, but that's a great paint job.

Though I was wondering this as well:

What kind of grease was used? anything special? I HATE taping off wheels when tires are already mounted...

You can put any kind of grease to keep paint from sticking to anything you wanna paint

Vasoline works also



Wheels look good get them on the car for final thoughts

That's why you just use index cards and a trash bag. Makes for a fairly quick mask job.

that was an idea... but ive seen them like that on some or the srt4's around here and i wanted to try something different

if i scratch them up ill change them with a different paint theme but im pretty satisfied with how they came out...
