Does anyone or has anyone removed the stripes off of a set of these wheels? I got a wheel/tire deal that I couldn't pass up on, but it comes with the American Racing wheels that has those ugly stripes. Appreciate any help!

Thanks,
James
 
Take 'em Wheelin' a couple times...What Stripes??
 
haha, thanks guys! I'll try the heat gun...then just cover them in mud if that doesn't work!
 
If you're talking about the painted on stripes, nail polish remover works great for that
 
Yea, just saw a good writeup on using fingernail polish remover. Going to try that first and then see what happens. From what I've seen so far, it doesn't mess up the paint of the wheel itself. I'll post pics after this weekend!
 
Yep, nail polish remover works awesome on them and doesn't mess with the paint. Never paint over what you can remove with even less work.
 
Yep, tried it this weekend...only completed part of one wheel and it does work. Just takes forever!!!
