Prostars aren't all that.

Personally I want another black TA with gold Magnum Drags, so I think he should have done that.

Wow black with a chrome/polished lip. How original. Needs help masking too.

Ill hold the rest of my comments until they show up on the car.

Yeah, looks the same as when I spray painted my friends rims black and duct taped the lip to keep it polished.

yep, the painted prostars are just a temporary fix until i get me a new set of the magnum RT's.

as far as the tape lines......uh WOW. none too happy...... but they can be fixed with some laquer thinner. the rear wheels came out great.

keep in mind those pics that OP posted are fresh from the tape being pulled off. it takes time. give him a chance. im patient and can wait til they are done right

they look good, they arent meant to look like baller wheels, and those that understand that havent made a negative comment.

what does the car run in the 1/4? if you dont mind me asking?

Default Re: chris(Raven02TA)'s newly painted rims.

car has been a best of 10.46@128 on the 150 shot (probably the last time the shot will ever be that high), feathering the throttle on the come down from lifting the wheels.... consistantly in the 10.7-10.8's on the 100 shot on a bad day. this was two years ago before a trans-brake..... so.... who knows what will happen this year. i feel as thought the motor hasnt been running all that great this year, even on the street. but i could just be paranoid....either way. i plan to pull out the stops and blow it up this year, to make room for my next winter build.

yea i understand that they arent going to look perfect. and i have no problem with that. but since i daily drive on them, and go to chic-fil-a and shows and stuff. we will get them to be decent looking at the very least.
