WHOA are you serious? yeah now i'm looking closer and they are!
did you have to do anything with the fitment or did they bolt directly on? that would be so awesome, i used to have those SAME rims (except not in white) and theres a pair of MINI rims from teh factory that i absolutely love, maybe i'll do this too!

Thank you everyone!
hey, what car is this? I havent been able to find the one you are talking about
They dont really have lips. I think it would look silly
Yeah i go back and forth by the hour. I think it does make the door handles look more legit.. but i kind of hate those too. hahaha Sometimes i hate the whole thing
Thanks. I definitely could lose an inch in the back. Then after that i could prob go another inch all around with out anything too serious but they would def rub over bumps and stuff
Thanks. I know sucks about the offset. especially in the rear. I dont remember the specific color but it was just a basic krylon spray can. I tryed a few wheel and high heat paints first but i wasnt happy with how they looked. The krylon sprayed really thick and even and looked great but im kind of concerned with how well it will hold up. It tends to want to absorb grease and stuff like that
I dont remember exactly but i believe on some hondas people had to expand the hub bore of the wheels slightly. But on the fit they lined right up! I did nothing to them.
offset is pretty high. 48 i think ...unless you like that which i dont.
Spacers werent necessary, they mounted perfectly. Allthough, i did consider getting some anyways just to push them out a bit more.
Thanks everyone else for the kind words!

Was the paint acrylic? That could be why its absorbing.
Any clear on them?
Ive noticed that some spray clear stays tacky. Ive had some wheels get messed up when they balanced the tires. The clear just turned/wrinkled with the wingnut on the machine.
I was sad.
And where in Orlando are you? You have to be close to me as Ive seen all the VW's in your pics.
Never yours though.

Enamel!! Thats what I ment. Hehh
Yea, I used that stuff in black and you cant sand it. It just goos up and rolls.
It doesnt "dust" off.
I would have suggest clear. Thats why its staining. Better keep them clean or the brake dust will eat and pit the paint.
