no car but got my wheels back from powdercoating
My FD has been down for 3 weeks at the body shop getting paint (matching the factory red) and probably has another week and a half left, for this kind of time and money it better be looking good when I get it back! Any way, the wheels only took a couple days and I just picked them up yesterday. I think they look good in semi-gloss black. Cant wait to see them on the car when I get it back.

Clean them? What is wrong with dirty tires? 
That cost me $225, I only got one other price quote of $265 so I dont know what is the typical rate. Of course it cost a fortune to get them dismounted then remounted and balanced so add another $50 or $60 on top of that.

Gad damn your REPU's bed is nasty as hell 
I keep thinking whether to powdercoat my stockers or not. Eventually, I'm planning to get larger wheels & brakes. I guess maybe I shouldn't waste the money.
