Riding on 4 Donut's?!?!?!
I want to paint my factory rims but don't want to do the painting one at a time. I don't have a garage and I cant leave the car on stands so my question. Will I do any major damage to the vehicle by putting her on 4 donuts for 3 days? I might have to move the car 2 times during those days but it wouldn't be for more then 8 miles and no high speeds will be reached, 30 mph tops. What do you guys think I should do????

where in NYC you at? you can borrow my donut. but you HAVE to take pics of the TL on 4 donuts. rofl
remember the news clip of the TL left on blocks. It could be worse. anything is better than nothing.

I have a few friends that will let me borrow their donuts. I will take pictures of her on 4 donuts. Now i just need to find the right color paint for my calipers.

you can only use the acura 6MT dounts on the front due to the Brembo brakes. the standard one will not fit over the calipers!

I hate to be the party pooper here, but isnt the load capacity of donuts a lot less than that of the regular wheels? I'd expect just replacing one tire with a donut to be safe, but wouldn't replacing all four tires with donuts be a bit dangerous?

+10000000.. that picture would be hilarious!.. I would reconsider painting them one at a time. The transition period might be a little strange but at least you'd still be rolling. If you did one at a time.. keep the stockies on the fronts at all times when driving.. so when you get to painting the front wheels you just trade out the painted wheel.
