Ok...I need some opinions. Here is my situation: I need new tires to put on my torque thrust II rims (see pic below), but I want to put r-compound slicks on them for Autocrossing, so therefore they will not be good for daily driving. I do have my stock three spoke/tri-bar rims with all-season tires installed on them that I could use for daily driving, but I hate the way they look (no offence to anyone who has and likes their tri-bars).


What I am thinking of doing is painting the inner part of the tri-bars, so when I have them on my car for DD-ing, I am not so turned of by their looks. I have photochopped a concept of what it might look like. opinions?

Definitely an improvement. Maybe just leave the outermost ring silver (paint the flat, horizontal part of the wheels)?
