Mine have scratched a little when mounting tires. But I have never done things correct. The first time I didn't let the paint cure before I remounted the tires. The second time I painted the rims I didn't sand the first color off the rims edge enough and it made things very thick, so the paint got smudged again.

Jid, How did you do that red trim on the wheel, steady hand? That thing must be a howl going up Cottonwood Cannon.

EVOnation, if you live in Boston area, you could do what I did, I bought 5Zigens and mounted the stock Advans on them for the summer and then mounted winter tires on stock Enkeis for winter traction:


Sorry for the girth.

Out of curiosity did everyone just go to like a street shop or specialty shop to get them remounted cuz when they dismounted mine they scratch the crap outa them. and thats that I told them make sure you take off the weights first guess they didnt care
