I would have gone for some larger wheels with low-profile tires. Good job on the poweder coat tho.

Did you colour in the Honda badge with a pen...?

I used spray paint to color the center caps.

Oh sorry, for a second I thought it was a bit uneven.

It's possible...I haven't had too much experience w/ the ol' spray can. They turned out pretty well, but if you look at them really closely, they're not perfect. LOL, the first time I did the black I didn't let them dry long enough before taping them off to do the red. So, when I took the tape off, I had this crazy masking tape texture all over the caps. A little touch up w/ the black fixed it though.

I'm really happy w/ the way they turned out on the whole...I really like the white/black/red combination. Plus, I've never seen anyone w/ the same colors on their HX wheels.
