I've already searched the site so don't scold! I can't seem to find anyone that's painted the wheels on the car... not the hubcap, lots of folks have done that. I was just thinking that a red wheel, instead of black- behind the hubcap would look good. Any thoughts? Ideas? Pics?:iono:
Thanks!

Not painted, but I've put a chrome trim/lip on the stock steelies and rocked whitewalls... looks good lowered IMO

I am not sure if my wife will allow me to put my signature paint job on her Yaris. I paint the rim silver, the hub black, and the hub & nuts silver. Simple, effective, looks better IMHO than most covers.
Ideally, I wish I could get a set of baldies to cover the center, that looks better yet...
