Ya they are really beat up. And I wanna just have them look nice until i can get the money to actually repaint them professionally! They might be the replicas too I'm not exactly sure just bought the car and the wheels came with them! Idk I'm a newb to this and just wanna know what kind of paint to use!

Vht and rustoleum are pretty good.

Why would you even post this in the "submit your ride" thread, when there is one already dedicated to wheels/tires/suspension?

engine enamel paint, has ceramic in it, perfect for wheels to prevent peeling, and most of the time no clear coat is necessary

well if they are real mugens, i beleive they will have a badass smooth polished center cap and they should have MUGEN cast into the wheel.

if not, they are probably Rotas. I have a set of the same Rota Group N's, they're okay, i like them cuz their pretty light.


edit- that engine paint works pretty good. or wheel-specific paint. i'm currently painting stuff with that same engine paint and it works real good, doesn't like to run, goes on nice.
