Wheel paint
When I was looking at the pictures of the 1M that IND prepared I thought the HR wheels look great basically because of the paint finish on them. Then, I remembered a BMW wheel that I admired at the time, the E39 M5's style 65 "shadow line" wheels, here there is a link with photos:

I highly recommend POWDER COATING the wheels instead of painting them. The paint will not last very long and is very prone to chipping. Powder coating will last a lot longer and will stand up to chips, dent's and dings a lot better. |
