so i got some new rims... its 17x7.5 ET 45 ... they're rims from b7 A4 ... the previous owner painted them flat black but i painted them gloss black... gonna throw some tires on there soon to get a pic of it with the car.





pic of the before and after (flat black is how i bought it and i painted it gloss)

 

flat looks much better D:
i always think the gloss look kinda "loses" the wheel where the flat look is more defined, makes the car look nicer.

Either way they look nice, throw them on! what tire you have picked out?

 

I dunno I kinda like the gloss black better. I always thought flat black wheels just looked dirty. I was gonna repaint mine yesterday but the 90% humidity kinda ruined that for me lol

 

haha yea i mounted just the rim on the car (the flat black one) and it kinda looked weird so i painted one of em gloss... threw it on there and i was like yupp this is the one haha so i painted them all black... im planning on throwing some 215/45/r17 on there... after that ima get ST coilovers and lower that thing to a 1 finger gap... then it'll be awesomee
