So my fiancee suprised me at the shop today with my wheels. She went down to the powdercoater and picked them up for me. Now all i need to do is order the tires(possibly Bridgestone RE760 Sport) and figure out what lug nuts, then they go on the car. Just wanted some opinions i guess. They look alot better in the sun.

Brilliant Gold Advan SA3R.

the color looks sick man. Do you have the center caps? if so did you paint them as well? because i have the same rims and i'm not sure if i want to powdercoat them because of the center caps...

I am hoping these wheels were beat up pretty bad and that is why you had them coated. Other wise you just murdered a good set of rare wheels.

But they do look pretty good.

Two wheels were in good condition just had curb rash. Other two had curb rash and the blue clearcoat was fading and chipping. If I could of found two more in good condition I would have kept them the same. This offset and lug pattern are damn hard to find.

It cost me 300 to get them done.

Hopefully they'll be mounted by next week sometime. Need to pick up some Mugen heptagon nuts.

I went to a place in cumming. They're called proffesional cryogenic metallergy and coatings. Phone is 770 888 8818. They did a great job. Took like 2 and 1/2 weeks.
