i took off my wheel covers to make my car look more ghetto. that way it wont get keyed or bothered as u guys know on my recent post. im fine with the donuts but the color of the metal is disoriented. it like left the shadow mark of the hubcap. is there anything i could apply on it like wax or or rime shine or some crap and even put the color and make it shiny.

why not just get a pinto? i mean personally, i wouldn't let something like that deter me from making my car look better. i guess to me it's kinda like me key-ing my own car if i take the wheel covers off. cause whether it's key-ing or taking wheel covers off i'm making it look ugly.

I can relate to that that some stuff I have refrained from doing to my car to make it draw too much attention to get it keyed or stolen. My dads new accord I was driving and it got keyed for no reason, so it can happen no matter what. But yeah rims I have been questioning on if I should do since it will draw more attention, and I plan on selling it soon so don't want anything stupid to happen to it. But its your car man and I know where you are coming from.

im not asking whether i should do it or not im asking if there is anything i can use to even out the color of the metal on the wheel.

You can first try a rubbing compound then apply a polish then wax and it that does not work just tape off the tires and re-paint them. Good luck!

Yah, spray painting might work but that will fade out. I really don't what to tell you. They're stock wheelies.

the wheel, and before you do that sand it down and primer it first so that it won't chip off....
