Why would you want to paint them.....they are the best stock wheels on the market. srt9 08-31-2008, 03:19 PM Cause I want to be different and my tastes aren't chrome wheels Grip Grip 08-31-2008, 03:21 PM Cause I want to be different and my tastes aren't chrome wheels They aren't chrome, they're polished; but we get your point.

CTS-Veo 09-01-2008, 01:10 PM I would love to do something like Blown-WJ's. I just don't know if theres a painter around here that I would trust doing it. Blown-WK 09-01-2008, 06:20 PM It can be done but its VERY time consuming. I did them myself and it took a whole weekend. The prep work is what takes the longest...lots of taping, sanding, painting, re-painting, clearing etc. I got a quote from a paint shop for ~800 to do them how I wanted.

They aren't bare aluminum. They would need to be media-blasted or hot-tanked, then powder coated. A lot of guys have done them in black. Some of the vendors will do it for $160 a wheel or so. A3zrider 09-02-2008, 10:13 AM look for a local powdercoater. Talked to the guy everybody I know uses and he is doing mine for $70 a rim. It's pretty cheap to get done. Cost almost as much as just having the tires removed and put back on | ||
