hes a quick and cheap tip for doing tyres get yourself a circle template from a stationary store,
spray the tyre/wheel the colour for the tyre (this acts as a preshade for the wheel colour) :-) then take the template and match up the size of circle with the rim then spray on your colour for the wheel it's quick and not very messy youthis helps speed up the paint
job of your kit too and the circle template only costs about the price of a tin or 2 of humbrol paints
