The wheels on my Diablo are a mess. The chrome is badly pitted on the centers and the back side of the inner rim. I decided to take them apart and clean up the cents. I sand blasted the loos chrome off and then powder coated the center gloss black. I sprayed the back of the wheel Matte black. What do you think? I think it will look good with the wheels like this. Now to do the other 3. Someone is going to get a nice car by the time it sells.

Great job bro. I wish i had a lift.

The black centers and polished lip looks great
However you lose seeing the shape of the wheel with black centre .it looks more like a 5 spoke rim rather than a porthole style
I would paint the centers bright silver or gunmetal

It really only looks like that in the pictures. They look great in person. On a side note, Speedline assembles these with Titanium hardware. Cool
