is this for your "race car" because 19s are a tad big for a racer maybe some wide 16s max

IIRC, the reason the finish on the wheels turn to sh*t is because owners don't regularly clean the wheels, thus the brake dust eats away at the wheels finish.

what size tyre u running, ive got those copy BF typhoon 2 in 18's but so has evryone else now dammit, the paint is fine ive had mine for 10 months n theres nothing wrong with the paint. Ive got 235x35 in 18 n there is like not much room between the tyre and the control arms but it never rubbed. mines only rubbed (king super lows) on the guards when i turn lots on a bumpy surface. Ive seen a few EF's running 19's should be ok. I believe youd still have 235 but by 30's? i have no idea :?

I got 19s. They rub if you turn a corner too hard. No track racing in them :roll: Image
