New Wheels, PAINTED!

New to me, these will probably be track wheels but i went with a burnt orange color. These are not professionally done and not perfect by any means, i spent about 8 hours on these two wheels. The only issue is that the wheels are not wide enough even with 15mm spacers so they're a little sunken in the rear.

Awesomeee job. May I suggest getting some mag blue or light blue nuts or wheel locks. It would really be epic.
