Looked at all types of Volks and don't think I want to drop 3K or more on a new set of wheels. The only wheels I'd take a dive on would be the anniversary Nismo 350Z wheels but they're very hard to find. Anyway, my OEM Rays are peeling and I thought might as well powder coat them next year. I figure between the powder coating and the cost of a set of PS2's, it will be quite a bit of coin. I have an IP coupe so if anyone has pics of gloss black or gunmetal grey OEM's, I'd appreciate them.

 

Anybody, I know some of you have them. Thanks.

 

here is a recent similar post, i have also posted pix of my gun metal painted 19 rays. hope it helps you to decide.

Thank you very much Doruk. Gunmetal seems to be the best choice. I just curbed one at the gym today. Looks like I will be powdercoating them sooner than expected.

 

I have PC'ed Ray's semi-gloss black, their on here somewhere.

I'm at work so I can't see any pics, or post any so if you want to see them search.

 

semi old thread, but thought id share mine, sorry for the low quality pics, ill get some better ones when i get the wheels on the car. powder coated black chrome with machined lip

 

nice, mike - how much did that run you?

 

Damn Mike those look sweet!!

 

powdercoating wheels is really cheap. by cheap i mean like a few hundred bucks at the most for a set. Volks, Rays, HRE, lots of highline manufacturers have some really nice wheels and are more than likely forged. the money is well worth it, I just picked up some volk GTFs and wouldnt look back.

 

thanks, 450$ for a two stage powder coat, maching the lips, and 1 stage clear coat. + mounting and balancing

 

got mine for $250 gloss black

 

sweet, got pics? the difference was the machining of the lip at 50 a wheel

 

Mike, did you get those done at a wheel shop, machine shop, coatings place, or what? Separate shops?

 

im actually having them coated now haha you will def see some pics soon i added clear corners and homedepot might black headlights while its just sitting in the garage. the guy whos powdercoating them also has a high heat grade chrome finish for the plenum. im getting done later on he said around 100 for that.

 

Id trade my 350z Annie wheels but I can't afford the tires
