    No drop kit yet, still stock height. Just looks lower with the dark contrast.

    If Im being lazy and just want to spray paint my steel wheels black to cover up rust, will it hurt my rotors, tires, or brake shoe if I get spray paint on them?

    First thing to think about is taking off the steelies, and treat the project as a delicate version of spraying a rusty old fire pit, old steelie, to improve the looks. Same concept just more steps with the car tire removal process. Maybe splurge on rims, that's the rich man version of the same story
