Yea the paint on those are not bubbled, it's the reflection of the grease from my hands and the hub rebuild. It was pouring out today if it's clear tomorrow I will take better pics.

I had them left over. I bought a bunch to do my valve cover on my project car. I think they are M6x1.0x20


Only cost me like 20 cents/each for the ss allen bolt and washer.

Mine's prettier
A glimpse of Dejon 3" upper i/c pipe, 20g, pretty sure you can see the zex line in there, an one or two other "toys"... I miss that car

Heh, I have a 2g with a 6 bolt swap/1g head. I am running a "bastard" 20G so pretty much the 20G wheel with the stock turbo housing. I basically look stock.

I figured it was pointless to start a new thread on a old subject. So don't beat me for reviving a month old thread! lol.


I painted them charcoal on the dial to match my grill and bumpers I painted earlier in the year. Hard to see in the second pic. The shiny new bolts I picked up from Tacoma Screw made it look real nice!!

The center cap came cut. I actually bored it out bigger to fit them over the Warns I had on there before. Now I will be looking for another pair of stock ones.

Like so......

Hey thanks, I used the duplicolor rim paint in charcoal, I used it on my bumpers and my grill, so far after a year, there is one chip on the grill. Front bumper is still solid. figure it would work fine for this as well.
