lol volks dont even recommending powdercoating the weeks.. and its their wheels.. lol

all in all.. if you do it, do it right the first time.. never take the cheap and easy way out, it will always cost more at the end.

 

Go back and re-read my post. I said there wasn't a million sets to choose from. Keyword here is choose, meaning choose a set of wheels to swap faces with. Look, I am not saying you'll never find a set but you act like a set w/ the opportunity to swap faces comes around everyday. Sure he could have gone and swapped faces but he decided to go custom. There is nothing wrong with that. Fine, you wouldn't powdercoat a set of your precious Volks. But no one asked you.

Ask yourself this, why would Volk even recommend you to re-powdercoat their wheels? Better yet, why would they recommend you to powdercoat their wheels when they can do it for you? Maybe because they'd rather have you buy a new set of wheels in the color you want...

That's like saying, never customize your wheels. Only sport wheels in a finish that only the manufacturers offer. Very one dimensional.

 

dah, obviously there isnt a million sets out there. but if you go back and read one of my posts, i said if you really want something then youll get it, meaning you might have to wait for a set to pop up(what i did) or go the extra mile to drive to them. but this isnt about me, i was just stating my opinion, which is why he posted pictures, to receive opinions, so shush Mr. Donut before i shooot this kitty

 

Yeah okay, so he should have waited for the opportunity to swap that could possibly be tomorrow or never. Sounds good to me.

Yes, I'm sure he posted a picture because he wants everyone on this forum to tell him what he should have done. Anyway, the horse is dead. Later.

 

cya bro

 

FAIL... Why would anyone in their right minds make their rims weaker just to have that color.. its just stupid.. lol.. can get someone hurt..

 

Powdercoating my wheels wasn't harmful one bit to Volks. I had them done the color I wanted, within about a days time, at a very reasonable price............................

 

And its a she by the way. Why she posted pictures to receive opinions, not recommendations on what i should have done instead because I'm satisfied with my choice

 

Prove it.

 

Didnt know there were so many metallurgists on the site that know so much about metal composition...
