That really is different. How did you paint the wheels? Did you tape off the tires, or were the wheels off the car and by themselves? Looks like you have blacked out the lug nuts too. How does the paint hold with a socket on a lug nut?

Wonder if it would look better with a small strip of silver or chrome at the wheel bead.

Not my slice o' tea, but an added stripe would make it look awesome, be it red or silver.

Yeah, most likely. I looked through the pics and saw lug nuts similar to the chrome ones my SLE has.
