I'd like to have my factory wheels powdercoated black. Looked for a post about this but couldn't find anything. Has anybody had this done in Central Florida? Sorry if there is already a thread about this. Kinda new here.

Thanks,
Chris

edit: also, has anyone used spacers to lower the offset of the factory wheels?

I would just paint them. I had two sets of painted factory rims. One ap1 set and one ap2 set. They both held up really well, even after changing tires multiple times.

Welcome to the community!!!

 

If you are going to have someone powder coat them as stated above...go see Josh at extreme!

 

Thanks speedworks, glad to be here. I hope you all don't mind me prodding your brains for advice as I toy with my car.

 

That is what we are here for.

If you need any tech advice I do alot of the mechanic work for the Orlando community and there are PLENTY of great knoledgeable guys around here.

 

I always prefer powder coating to regular paint. Finish seems much more durable and looks nicer imo.
I might have to check that place out too. Have a local powder coating I have been getting all my work done through but they have been taking forever recently to complete my jobs.

Do some research about wheel failures after powdercoating before you make a decision.

 

Wheel failure seems to mostly be a BS thing. I have spoken with many powder coaters about this and seems to be a bunch of nonsense.
