One thing he mentioned in his PM to me was make sure your powdercoater does not coat the inside diameter of the centering hub hole. He also said that his coater did the media blasting. I have access to a blaster so I am trying to see if I can save some money by blasting my self.

 

That's exactly right Bniedert... the wheels look as good as they day they were done but like you said.. make SURE that whoever does it wipes the powder from the hub "hole" else you'll be screwed... like I was... it seriously took two sledgehammers and some very tense moments on the lift to get the wheels off... there's absolutely no way I could have gotten one off by myself on the side of the road.. other than that I couldn't be happier... BTW I think black wheels look good on just about anything if it's done right...

 

Are you planning on buying those wheels? If so, when are you planning to buy?

 

Why do you ask?

Regardless, I'm not quite sure yet about either of those questions. I still haven't quite made up my mind as to which wheels I want. I know I'm going to go with a black combo of some sort, but, I'm not sure if I want black with a chrome/polished lip, like the Foose Speedster II, or something like the Ultra Mako 243.

The Ultra is pretty unique, but, I also like the black/machined face style, such as, the Incubus Poltergeist.

The one that is really starting to grow on me is the Magma by Liquid Metal.

Decisions, decisions...

(For anyone interested in taking a look at any of the aforementioned styles, you can find pictures of them in my gallery...)

thanks casey and B for the input, i will defintiely keep those things in mind if i decide to get mine powdercoated... im starting to lean more towards just getting some new wheels i found cause the powder coating is gog to cost me 85 a wheel and i can get new wheels for about 125 (pro comp 7089 all black ones) if u havent sen em just google pro comp 7089

 

Yea there awsome, i got a black screw and im getting the mojaves, there not really black black but there not chrome or any thing else and when i go mudding it'll be slightly easier to clean

 

WOW.. you may check aroung westofhwy5... that price sounds outrageous man... either way.. good luck to you... and post some pics

 

I'm kind of trying to make up my mind what wheels to go with as well (I'm planning on buying in early april), I was really hoping to see a set on an F150 before I bought them, maybe I'll try to get someone to do a photoshop. Just don't want to buy the wrong wheels for 2,000 +. Thanks for all your help.

 

I think the black wheels look sick on black trucks...they dont look right on any other color IMO...
