New maxxis mud terrains and black saw blade rims
Just got my new 30'' maxxis bighorns put on, i was originally going to buy some Cragar Soft 8's, and the shop that put my tires on said they could order some for $60.00 a rim, ended up finding out they dont make any rim that fits any tires i wanted for my blazer from what they told me, so i would have had to special order the cragars which were black and 60.00 a rim, now because it's special order they said it was $192.00 a rim, and they were chrome... not black... so i said eff it and kept my sawblade blazer rims and painted them black, i honestly think after painting these that this was the best idea ever. they look sweet and i recommend it. here is the before and after pics of my 97 blazer. :)

Those look pretty awesome

Ooo!!! I've been looking for pics like this for ever! I have custom rims on now but I have snow tires on my saw blade stock rims and have always wanted to paint them black but didn't know what it would look like. THAT LOOKS AWESOME! lol
|
yess! they are sweet. gotta wait a few days for the paint to cure but its worth it. i was gonna put the caps back on to cover the lugs but said screw it. they look great to me with them off. i can try to get pics of them with the caps to show you difference but either way im sure they look good.
|
What kind of black paint is dat and where can i find it?
|
just black spray paint, im not sure exactly what the brand was or anything but i can sure figure that out, i painted them at my dads shop
|
Sense my truck is red I was thinking of painting the rims and caps black, but paint the bow tie on the caps red with my matching touch up paint. I think that would look sick. I'll photo shop it first tho to see.
|
i honestly was going to try that with the red bowtie on the caps, but i realized that the red wouldnt look that great with a two toned black/brown blazer :/ im sure i could do white or brown not sure but ill mess around with it, and for sure the red bowtie on the caps would look sweet with your red blazer. i would definitely do it
|
Looks good. Did you paint the caps too or leave them silver?
|
Damn dude dats what I pland on doing... Let's do it then.... I'm also gonna paint da lip red... Dat way I can still stand out a bit... I just need to know what shade of black dat is... Because I'm going for dat glossy black look as well..... I'm trying to get it done by da 5 because I'm getting ready to get new tires
