Those stock wheels look pretty good painted! Do you have any close ups of them? What paint did you use and how many coats of clear coat did you apply? And you said you used Evo 8 springs? Like the stock springs off the Evo 8??? Never heard of someone doing that before.....

i use some off brand autozone paint. and i did like 2 or 3 coats of paint .ive painted rims before with cheaper 1$ paint from walmart and never had a problem, also i have no clear coat.

and the springs, what i meant is that i used some lowering spring made for an evo 8

sorry for the size

The wheels look great. Just two questions, what brand springs did you use? What is the part number for the springs?
