Some people prefer to not have any scratches on the wheel, no matter front or back.

Dude, don't take offense to it, it's your wheel, you can do what you want with it. Just seems that a lot of enthusiasts here wouldn't do that. You just had them freshly painted, why scratch them up?
Sorry.
Sorry.

Dude, I love the look!
And, I've never seen that here on AcuraZine before either.

I'm actually about to take the tires off and strip the entire wheel and have them re-done because when mounting the tires the machine chipped off some powder coat on the lips and this time I'm going to have the face painted professionally

I don't know who DJ Wells is, but I want him to photograph my wedding! Jk, car looks great. I love the copper lip, but the white faces are a bit bold IMO. Too much white going on. Kudos for originality though!

I had the same thought as ebelp. Lip is sweet, and original, but the whitegface isn't working for me on the white car. Question that I don't have an answer to is...what color might look better than the white, all else being equal?

I'm actually going to re-do the wheels, same thing but this time the face will be painted professionally and the rivets in the wheels will be coated in copper as well, the little details should make the wheel better, btw thanks again for another honest opinion

DJ, I'm glad you're keeping the copper color. Anxious to see the professional paint job.

hahaha that was a good one! gotta strip the entire wheel with aircraft stripper, it's gonna be hell, I'm actually going to run a 20mm spacer in the rear and a 25mm in the front so it should sit just perfect because I plan on going a tiny bit lower
