Having my wheels Re-powdercoated...
Now do i re-do them in white or go for Black ?
I do like the white on white look but am thinking about the cleaning of them i have to do to keep them looking white,so if i went black,since they go black anyway with the dust etc ....... Hmm
The wheel ( i do have 2 Mcguard locks per wheel now not this crap one i had at the time LOL)
the current look

The white looks good - have you had any issues with them going yellow/dirty looking, I've heard that this is a problem with white powder coated wheels, I was thinking about getting mine repainted rather than powder coated

Cheers for the input guys,i too was swaying to keeping them white LOL
Yes,in some places there are tindges of yellow,hence the re-do of them,didnt realise it was a powder coating issue,just presumed they had a hard life LOL
to do them powder coated round here is £120,i might see if i can get a quote to paint them rather than powder coat,see what the £££ difference is
cheers

I paid over £200 to get mine painted last time, but that was short notice and I didn't have time to shop around. Powder coating is £160 here, but I need to get some quotes - maybe even see if I can get them done as a part of my respray

That's what I paid up here for my 17's...
Black is a pain, you need to keep the tyres spotless, or they look drab and grey.
Mine are either going a crazy colour, or a really nice extra sparkly metalflake silver...
