wheels, paint or powder coat?
sdh2903 - 13/7/11 at 03:34 PM

Ive managed to source a cheap set of wheels for my kit however they aren't the colour I was after. I'm just wondering what the best option is, to change colour Paint or powder coat? Is the durability of powder coat really neccessary for a car that only covers a few thousand miles a year?

Wheels are brand new and going from anthracite to gloss black.

cheers
Steve

Agree 100%........I just don't get this obsession with black wheels....no offence to the OP (and thousands of others, I guess....) everyone is entitled to their opinion and choice.

It's just that you are all wrong...

Black wheels look sh*te

^ he's wrong, black wheels look good, but only on white and some orange cars
