Ive just finished painting my tyres and calipers and just wanting your opinion on them. I wont be buying new alloys as ive already scuffed these tyres on curbs so low profile tyres would mean i would curb my alloys

What paint did you use for the tyres, they look spot on.

I used a white tyre pen from ebay for the tyres then applied a clear laquer spray to protect the paint. For the calipers i used hammerite paint from halfords.
