My winter OEM wheels were in really crappy shape -- corrosion pits everywhere. I am not sure this is worth the effort I have put into these (don't ask!), but it's too late to change my mind now.

So, a lot of paint stripper, wire brushing and sanding got me to this:

Some final sanding and Duplicolor engine paint:

These are going to be my R-comp autocross wheels for the summer, so I'll see how well they hold up to 30+ wheel changes and being hauled around in a trailer.

Any suggestions for accent colouring to look good with a Rio Yellow S2000? The center caps have to be left out; I need the hole for fastening the wheels to the trailer with a PVC pipe and cable.

 

NICE! I really like the color.

Not sure about accent coloring but painted calipers would look nice behind those spokes.

 

Same question for the calipers -- what would be a good colour to go with yellow? Red is the obvious choice, and I suppose it would make them pop -- just not sure if it would enhance the look or not.

 

Yellow is a tough colour to match IMO. If you're hardcore, you could try that metallic looking, polished dark blue..
