Fresh From the Powdercoaters- Black Steel!! FS

[metelhead]

Ok- I have made a detour on my road to wheelheaven....so this project is now available...if anyone is interested please shoot me a PM or email: [email protected]

These are 17" OEM Steel Tahoe/Yukon Wheels which I just had powdercoated (still with wrapping on them..never mounted) a brilliant Semi gloss Black with a clear coat added for durablity. I was going for the 'Police look' and these certainly capture that in spades! I also have a spare set of wheel sensors to go with these... If not I may just use these for my winter wheels!

Could see me rocking those for winter up north (though I live in Texas), or long road trips.
Too bad my 17" spindles won't allow for wheels that small, even after clearance mods.

Thanks-Yeah they came out Way better than I expected too...they were $60 per wheel for the double coat (Black and Clear coats!)
I may end up rockin these for my winters....but I have some 20" due in tomorrow that will also get the Black treatment for my dailys...stay tuned.

if you find anything similarly close in 20s......post it up!!!

i wish they had these in OEM 20s. makes me not even care bout 24s or 26s....until i switch out the cop look and go for the baller appeal.




oh by the way....anyone know what the fattest tire size would fit on these 17s? 285/75? i want a thicker tire to fill in the wheel space.

$60 powdercoating per wheel seems like a really good deal. I figured it would cost at least $100 per wheel.

I'm not sure how wide you can go on the 7.5" rim........

But I wish someone would make a 20 x 9.5 steel wheel...that would be sweet.

I'll post them here in a few more days the 20" alloys OEM should be half way done at the powdercoaters...so this time next week should be sweet! I went with Matte finish too!
