Who painted their stock wheels like this..?
I thought I once saw a CL/TL on here with type-s wheels that had their inner spokes painted black, but the rest of the wheels still the silver color. It looked really good. Does anyone have pictures of this car or know whose car it was? I'm thinking about doing it.

Yup. Don't mind my old "racing slick" in this one.

Ugh, pre-drop FTL.

Thanks. There might be a chance in the near future of them being available for purchase.

Red on gold is such a great combo, but you need some bigger better wheels!

Oak your still running on somewhat stock rims (aspecs) lol! Don't hate! I would love rims but with these shitty roads and the fact that decent wheels are over a grand without even tires makes them unattainable!

I actually really like the look of the CL-S stock rims. If only they were bigger, it would have been perfect. Maybe in 18's would be good, 17's look a little small with a drop.

If they were 18's I'd be much more inclined to make them look better.

I like this look but it def doesn't work the other way around. There's a local guy with 2G TL that painted the spokes and left the inner silver and it looks wack!!! Maybe cause his car is completely stock.

Agreed. I thought about doing all black but I did the insides and loved it. Really makes the spokes pop out.
