Dat Lurka Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Do it right Powdercoat and leave the blue lip Quote Link to comment
Laecaon Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Plastidip, so you dont ruin the long champs. The blue lip is just a film to protect in shipping. Quote Link to comment
72240z Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Shipping and tire mounting... I 2nd plastidip as to not ruin them. They are already getting rare as hell in decent sizes/offset. My dream wheels actually. 1 Quote Link to comment
Dat Lurka Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 haha well they'd look good with a blue lip :rofl: 1 Quote Link to comment
Tristin Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Never seen full block ones, though I assume they would just look similar to the TE37 rim, but with a larger step lip. XR4s only came with black sided centers from the factory... I have seen gold sided centers though and they looked ok. Quote Link to comment
spitznoz Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 I think if you go full black you will loose its classy look(it will look like steelies from a far) i like these tho keeping the centers original color Quote Link to comment

gokiburix Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 this is what the knockoffs in black look like: knockoffs only come in 4x100 1 Quote Link to comment
72240z Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 If they didnt I would prob own a set lol sigh Quote Link to comment
gokiburix Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 non blacked out one: pretty close replica, but still looks "off" Quote Link to comment
72240z Posted November 29, 2012 Report Share Posted November 29, 2012 Ya it feels like its not as crisp, I think because the black boarder is too much it muddles the spoke design. Quote Link to comment
The Dat-side Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 I was about ready to post Lance's car. I say you platidip them for the winter and see how you like them. That way they're not ruined. Quote Link to comment

Radim Posted November 30, 2012 Report Share Posted November 30, 2012 The blue lip is just a film they use for transportation/packaging, but it does look pretty damn cool! Quote Link to comment

RedBanner Posted December 1, 2012 Report Share Posted December 1, 2012 I realize there not the exact same wheel . But equally unimpressive, same style wheel I'd say. Same with the drags tho. Quote Link to comment
