There's been a lot of talk lately about powdercoating rims, and I really like the look, especially on the darker cars (like mine). So, should I do it?? It's certainly a lot cheaper than a new set of customs, and in a way would be more custom than new rims!! I love the pics of the black rims that have been posted lately, and I mocked up a photochop of what mine might look like with a dark grey powdercoat (with painted calipers and r1 discs that are on my mod list anyway). Please tell me what you think... I value y'alls opinions!

For sure powdercoat them. Either black or gray will look sweet. As long as you leave the outside lip polished, you cannot go wrong! :)

Those wheels look sweet and I wish the stockers had a deeper lip lke that! I also dig your hood ornament in the last pic!

Thanks all....so far black is winning!

I was going to do mine in a dark grey. Just haven't got around to it yet. It looks good in grey.

FYI neither of the above wheels will work on the LX platform.

As an owner of a Mineral Grey Magnum RT I think the Dark Grey powdercoat is an excellent option to spending large $$$ for a set of wheels! :thumbs_u:
