I brushed mine black with rustoleum for the same reason, nice job you did. Those are awesome looking wheels, I'll bet they would look cool with those trim caps you can buy for the lugs, maybe black. With the large ovoid openings around the lug it looks like you wouldn't have the removal problem posed by the deep narrow OEM sockets.

nice
Good job, looks clean!
I'll do mine when I change out the new rotors, for now, I'll live with the rust.

good job man, looks 10x better
looks nice, my sister has a black car w black wheels, and hers were like orange from all the corrosion and whatnot, cleaned it up, sprayed with black heat paint, and looks much nicer.
i will be doing my pads change soon, so ill probably get around to that as well.

The hats and rotors are all one piece.

Very nice.
Just had a thought- are OEM hats zinc plated?
Oddly enough, my wheels caught my attention last weekend-but it was just too COLD. :ah:
