The chrome on my wheels is peeling so bad that I can't keep tire pressure for more than 3 or 4 days, and it's random based on where the tire rests after parking. I purchased 4 new B7RS4 replica wheels and I'm going to have the existing 4 stripped and power coated for sale or maybe putting back on the car.

If I have them powder coated for sale, which color do you guys think would be the most popular? Silver?

Would anyone on the forum like the wheels unfinished for $100 each? They don't have any dings or road damage, just the chrome peeling. They are 17x7.5 5-100 wheels. I'll also sell them for $225 a wheel powder coated and clear coated in any color. I'll have the center caps coated the same color too.

 

If you need a powdercoater, Filip does great work http://www.audifreaks.com/forums/showthread.php?t=140

 

Thanks, but there's a local shop that does them for $100 a wheel including stripping the chrome.

 

I vote flat black.

And I have 2 sets of Fat 5's already, so I won't be buying yours.

 

wtf 100 a wheel? i can get wheels blasted and powder coated for 50-60 a wheel

 

Thats for powder coating, he is getting power coating :lol:

 

Thanks for the info, maybe I'll look around some more for a better price. Not a lot I can find in Knoxville, TN and shipping will be around $80 each way so it's cost prohibitive to ship. Powder to the people!

 

I thought about that. It would definately be a differentiator from silver and help me get a return on investment. How much would you guys pay for a finished set? I need to make sure I can recoup my investment. What about the center caps, black too?

 

lol!!
