Default Check Out My "New" Wheels



Here is the finished peoduct, after about a month on jack stands. Ballistic Industries (near Pittsburgh, PA) did a great job and only charged me $40 a wheel. What do you guys think?

Should be in the "Gallery" section. Looks ok, I prefer the stock steel finish.

Well, I hate to do this, but since you asked...those look a lot like mine, which are stock, if i don't wash them for a month or so, especially my fronts. Sorry.

But I suppose that coated like this they won't show that brake dust so much. HPH

IMO. life is too short to be stock. But, to each their own.

obviously I like the look of powdercoated oem wheels, although personally I think yours are a little too light in color to be much of a difference from stock. Nice price though - should have done your lugs and painted your centercaps too.

In person they really are not that light. They are drastically different than stock, believe me.I was trying to match the color of my cf add-ons and I think I acheived that. Too dark and I think they look like a big black hole.

hmmm, you let your wheels get that dirty??? to the the point they look gunmetal?
Maybe you should be driving a cobalt and not an s2000
