here it is powder coated rims and i love them, my original plan that i have to go back for is to get all thats raised sanded and re polished, anyone who has the 18's knows what im talking about. im not sure if i wanna keep them black and have all that was originally polished re polished, or keep them all blacked.

(my bad on ugly looking rotors just washed it, they rust up so damn fast!)

I like it.

I want to pick up a set of the V6 rims, I like the split spoke design, and have those powdercoated black.

Looks good. Too bad about those rusty rotors. I'd like to see the 19 in stock rims powder-coated.... How much did it cost and where did you get it done?

I like it. Only bad thing is any chips are gonna shine through, literally.

If it was paint, sure. But powdercoating is near impossible to chip.

Black wheels not for me

I like them.. but not enought to do mine,

what I want is the up comming GXP wheels in Black for my car.

as for te guy wanting to see the 19's in Black, do a search, someone's done it already

ok, is just donned on me why I don't like it that much... it makes the car's ride hight look WAY to high, lower it a touch and you'll be golden.

Im tryin to powdercoat my stock 18's too just cant find a shop.

Looks great, what was the total cost?

I like the all black. In fact my black lip/black center 20's should be coming any day now.

It does make the stock 18's look a bit small though...

I don't like the 18's to begin with ...

and the black powdercoating makes it look worse ... Sorry.

i love black rims so thats a thumbs up from me :D

just wondering about the machining and polishing idea, have you been looking at the holden website at all??

I dont care what anybody says black on black is the way to go. Get some tint and the pedders drop springs and it will be just right.

Looks like you did a good job, but I don't like black on black.

it cost 100 per wheel, and the windows are tinted just don't look it with all the light behind. I will be lowering the car also just waiting to get my tune and catback first. also thanks asylum that helps a lot and is exactly what i was planning on doing.

I want to paint mine too. I have a red g8. I think itl look good.

I was wondering though. on my red g8... instead if polishing it back to silver... what would it look like red. Black with raised red?
