Powdercoat and $50/wheel. It's a place here in Colton called Jericos. I'll let you know how well they mount and what not early next week. I assume they hung them by the valve stem holes to coat them because every valve stem hole is a little messed up, I'm praying this will not affect the seal...if it does, I'm going to be pissed.

I believe Mrshl Mathrs or Hrspwrdrms, or something to that effect has some also. ZM, I noticed you have a black SVT and bronze/gold wheels, yet I don't recall ever seeing your car...can you post a pic or two?

Never fear! I still have my bronze/gold wheels also. They need to be repaired due to slight damage and chips, but they still exist!
Johnny, they look great! I think I'll have to check that place out! What kind of warranty do they offer on the finish, if any?

No Dan, that's what my SVT looked like when I put on my 215/45/17's without the Eibachs in yet.  I thought hrspwrdrms had some Konigs, did he switch?

I got stock springs and struts with 18s but seem rather lower than this car. Is it the wheels that makes a huge difference?
