I had my ap2 v1's done and love it. I had a pair of painted ap1's before and they looks almost as good but were WAY harder to clean, powdercoating allows you to just wipe it clean with a rag basically


i got mine done for 40 a wheel, but every other place i checked ran about 90 a wheel around here. check around you can probably find a deal

Normal price seems to be about $90 a wheel. Lots of people have powdercoated their wheels. I don't have stock wheels but I had the faces of my wheels powdercoated as they were multiple piece wheels. Did the faces for $50 a wheel.

Do you guys with powdercoated wheels have any problem with the lug nuts coming loose? Do you mask or remove the powdercoating that comes in contact with the lugs?

I always cringe when I see someone with aftermarket lugs and stock rims, not that many people get the right seat for the stock wheels 0.0
