About LinkBacksI run snow tires on my factory rims, and their looking pretty rough after 3 years of New England salted roads. The factory coating is starting to peel where the spokes meet the rim. I've got a beadblasting cabinets, so I was thinking of blasting them clean and either painting or powdercoating them a satin black/ Wonder how that'd look - anybody have any pictures they can post up?

Fnky - you are an encylopedia man! Not only do you know how to fix everything, but you know everything everone has on their cars. I PM'd Higshemi, and he sent this photo of his semi-gloss rims. Look really good to me.
