I really like those wheels. If I hadn't just gotten my LM reps last month I would have probably gotten these off you and had them powder coated black

Why pay so much for powder coating when you can spray them with plasti-dip?

Last just as long, MUCH cheaper, and you could go back to stock at any time; just a peel away.

I wouldn't sell these rims if I didn't have to.
They're not harsh, they're quiet with the tire choice, and they make the car proper. Not overly done, and not too stockish.

Well I get free powder coating because my really good friend which I am really close friends with there family owns a huge powder coating company. Im not to much of a fan of plasti dipping wheels, they just don't seem to look very good IMO. I think plasti dip is a great thing though, especially if you want to get an idea of how something will look without spending alot of money and doing something permanent.
