so ive been looking online at all diff types of yukons and rims and all that jazz. I have a 00 Yukon NBS with some ultra 20's on it. Truck is all white and tinted out, might remove running boards and body molding. Was thinking about powdercoating the wheels white, ive seen a few 07+ with this done and think it looks good.. what do you guys think?? ill throw in a shot of my rim below

I got mine powdercoated white and absolutely love it! I'd probably do it again if I upgrade to bigger wheels

They get a dirty a little quicker but clean up so much faster than chrome. Seriously like 15 minutes for all four.
Mine are 22s and I kept the little piece in the center chrome but 2000yukon has 20's but without any chrome. He also has some before and after shots in his album. I have more pics in my album as well

I think they would look good white, or black. Some of my drag racing buddies are using some kind of paint, like plasti-kote or something, their wheels? They are turning out really good and durability is great. Would be cheaper and easier, and if it doesn't hold up you could always have them powder coated later on. The powdercoater will have to beadblast the wheels anyway so it wouldn't matter if they had paint on them or not.

Just something to consider.
