they do it same day it doesnt take that long. why not just paint them? mine are painted and they look tits. i've painted a bunch of other cobalts wheels as well including tc wheels and they came out great. i did a matte black with a light clear coat on t/c wheels they came out awesome.

get a deck of playing cards and put tire shine on the tire. shove the cards in the bead and wipe the tire off afterwards. works like a charm.

Puts a layer of "wax" over the tire that the paint will stick to instead of sticking to the tire. Letting you wipe any over-spray off after you get done.

Oh nice.

I need to do a little dremel work when the tire is off too sadly.
