Nothing earth shattering, just a small tip from the bench this week.
 
After cutting down some rims, leaving the surface "as is" would not look at all realistic and would be way too thick for scale.

After trimming out the section, I used a blade to bevel the edge.

Once sanded and painted it will look much more like a true rim lip, and give a more realistic appearance of the tire seated to the rim in my opinion.
