Thumbs up Finally...new rims and painted calipers (pics)

I finally got some new rims and I love them. They are 19x8 Work Eurolines with a +45. I also painted my calipers black and they came out great. Enjoy:

Chrome really isn't my thing, but good idea painting the calipers black. The OEM castings are so ugly. My calipers are powder coated black for the same reason.

Yea, it's the Value front. I also have the Value sides and back but don't have the $$$ right now to fix/paint/install it.

Hopefully by the summer it will be on!
