HOW MUCH PER WHEEL!?!? LOVING THIS

@DarkestBuddah

I was waiting for someone to do this with 720 Forms. They're a great value to mod on (much like our cars). Gorgeous work man. Question, are those the stock tires? If so, they seem to fit pretty well stretched on those 9" wheels.

DarkestBuddha 07-03-2015 06:25 PM

the wheels were done by rjcoating, decent work but long wait
i think his price is $850 for the liquid coats now for a set

@DAEMANO
the tires are michelen pilot super sports 245/40

Vroomin86 07-03-2015 07:16 PM

looks great !


$850 just for the coating or includes wheels?

hmong337 07-03-2015 07:45 PM

Looks great. I hate the black these come in.

DarkestBuddha 07-03-2015 08:29 PM

@Vroomin86
just for coating (strip, blast, high polish, coat)

holy fuck, I guess it really is much more expensive over on the west coast. I can have a full set of wheels powdercoated for $300 and $500 for anything fancy, this includes stripping any current color/finish... nonetheless great job on color and wheel choice :thumbup:

Right? The thing keeping me from getting a set is the fact that they only offer them in black with the machined out bits still silver

ajaxthebetter 07-03-2015 09:53 PM

Damn you! I thought maybe I'd be one of the first to do this. If only they'd arrived by last Friday when I they were supposed to and not delayed.

Mine are 17x8 and I am searching for a shop to do them in a color not dissimilar from Volk Matte Blue Gunmetal.

Yours look amazing!

I'm wondering if I should leave the U beam spokes machined or just go full blue. My car is silver, so leaving them machined might be nice.

Once again. Damn. Looks incredible.

Finally @DarkestBuddha

DarkestBuddha 07-06-2015 11:42 PM

@ApolloSki
haha yes, getting these wheels on my car was a long journey full of tiresome tribulations and delays.
BUT ITS ON NOW!
and the ride feels goooooood


@ajaxthebetter
if you can get them to mask to spokes, it might look really badass with the silver there.
i always love me some blue

DuMa 07-07-2015 12:03 AM

its a super unique color. i like it but i think the lugs could be a different color. to break up all that gold. just for more contrast.

ajaxthebetter 07-07-2015 12:28 AM

Yeah. Its just so hard to envision what it may look like with silver u beams. I think I'll just go for it. Silver lugs. Silver U Beams. Silver valve stems. Just hope it's not too much silver.

Your picture has given me confidence to press forward with Powder. Though, I will say, it is annoying that shops are not responding. So many enquiries, so few responses.
