Better than regular paint I would think.

of course I took Scheides advice .... I couldn't pony up the dough for Nokian Hakkapeliitta RSi

But I did get a set of 235 45 17....

Also I got sick of looking at this ...

So I found a set of brand new center caps... only $13 each :/

Not the coolest looking things in the world but a lot better than not having them

I've also called every place that powdercoats wheels w/i a 1 hour drive.

Average price is $60/wheel including sand blasting. Luckily the cheapest place... is the closest at $50/ wheel. So If i'm going to spend the $200+tax to have the enkeis powder coated it needs to be worth it.

I allready have a dark wheel so help me narrow it down between these ...
1.Bronze/Gold
2.White
3.Red


EXAMPLES:
Bronze/Gold?

White?

And i'm sure that most people are going to hate but i'm really attracted to it.
Red?

Maybe the enkeis wont look as good as those wheels but it works great for them.

CHIME IN!! I want to know some opinions for the wheel colors

Dear god not white or red. Also not a huge gold fan. I would choose a deep bronze myself. I loved how deep bronze looked on my Talon. Maybe even a flat deep bronze.

1. Black or gunmetal w/ or w/o red time attack lip
2. Darker shade of bronze like the first car

Also keep us posted on where you go and how you like the job/price/turnaround time.

Why are you powdercoating them again? I vote skip it...they are winter wheels, let them be stock, nicked-up silver color....save your money for other stuff :)

matte bronze plz. Same as Enkei puts on some of their wheels, same kind of color Halon is talking about.

something like this looks ( . Y . ) on a red car:

Yea Id just leave them alone, they are winter wheels and will be covered up with crap most of the time anyway.

No red or white if you do anything. I like the bronze or gold or silver.
