    thanks guys for all the complements means alot...i was unsure at first about the bronze but i think i made the right choice for sure..and 1rooster i love the courser M/T's they are the second set ive had "first set on this truck" and they last a long time and wear nice....road noise isnt to too bad but it is an M/T tire sooo... they also clear out really well in snow and mud too.

    I'm planning on sand blasting mine at a buddies. You think tack cloth would be enough to remove debris or should I acetone wipe as well

    How did the paint hold up after tires were mounted?

    I also just noticed you painted over the lead weight. Could you not get them to balance and Put the weights on the inner side of the rim?

    yea..honestly painting my wheels wasnt in my plans right away to begin with, my other tires were shot and i already bought the mastercrafts and had them mounted before i painted so i didnt think to have them use stick on weights on the inside of the rim. i know it was a bit lazy for me to paint over the weight but eh what the heck...theres always next time lol..other than that they came out super clean though...i deff recommend acetone..just gives you that deep down good clean feeling that any and all grease dirt ect.. is gone....
