Color change.......

for my rims. I have the opportunity to have my rims powdercoated black. Thought I would have them photoshopped to see what they would look like.

What do you guys think?

that looks really good.
I hate to change the subject but what are the off sets on your wheels? I've seen them listed but no listing the offset.

Looks good. Is it possible to powdercoat the factor 18'' polished bullits?

As long as you don't copycat me down the road.
Hopefully I will get them done before the 1st drag day in April & you can see them in person.

I think the chrome lug nuts and spinners would nicely offset the black wheels.

Do you already have someone that will powdercoat them and then mill down the edges to remove the black from the outside edge? As far as I know they can't just powdercoat the center section. The entire wheel has to be done.

That is what I thought as well.
He might be able to get it painted though -- instead of powdercoated.
