    Time for you to finish painting the hyper for Ford.
    I feel it makes the wheel more translucent instead of hubcap style.

    Yea I like them, I like the color because there not black but not light silver. Im Just happy to have a nice new set of wheels that I can just get tires for and throw on for once.

    Ford is crazy with new rim prices, though GM is way up there is prices too.

    We had a body shop send us a new rim with the 2013 F-150 Platinum with 22's that got curbed, they told us it was $1,500 just for the one rim lol.

    I got the 2 brand new ones and the used one for $325, but thats a steal. The guy who bought the 2 brand new ones spent over $2500 on just 2. He had a 2010 Shelby, I forget the story but the guy was rich and didnt care about them because he didnt have the Shelby anymore and his friend sold them to me. Im looking for a 4th but Im not trying to spend $400+ on 1 reconditioned wheel.

    Here are my measurements, to show you guys what collision measurements look like. I will be using a tram gauge to measure, and they are recorded in MM.
