Should I Powdercoat my Stock Wheel's? HELP!
I just bought an 04 IP g35 coupe with brembo's, nav ect. I have BC racing coilovers on the way to my house. My original plan was to put on 20's and i had them ordered but canceled because i want to focus my time on a build that im hoping will put me in the 600rwhp range. So i decided to maybe powdercoat my stock wheels black chrome. or somewhere along those lines.
PLEASE POST w/ your suggestions and if anyone has pictures of their stock wheel's (18's) powdercoated that would be great..

I love how the GG looks on black cars. I had GG BBS wheels on my evo IX.
Yea wider tires are a must but my first priority is getting all the pieces to my build. Once i have everything i still will need to send certain things out to get swaintech white lightning coated ect.. so i will have time to save up for the wheels before everything arrives.

RANC3R the cost to powder coat depends on the color you want and where you have it done at... for some it may cost $200 or $800 it just depends...
