hi guys the bells i have on my two peice disc look abit shabby now so going to get them anodised or powerder coated what colour have people got/recommend pics please

here are my wheels at the moment (will have blue nuts soon aswel)

 

Are they alloy bells?

I wish I'd had mine anodised before fitting them.

 

Have mine painted WR blue, done them myself and cost about £30 to do.

 

they look nice mate

 

sorry mate missed this lol yes they are alloy they are performance friction ones it says they are High Carbon Alloy with Molybdenum and Copper on their website if that makes a difference

 

any more out there

 

Mine are the alloy ones from Godspeed.

95turbowagon, yours look good. Why did they cost so much to do?

 

Mine are Performance Friction in black, as supplied.

 

Is it just me or does painting or powder coating sound a bad idea ???
AFAIK the mating surface between the rim & disk should be free of paint ect, if the paint or powder coat starts to come away its loose wheel time !

yeah thats what i have now but fancy a colour change

 

the performance friction ones come painted or powder coated in black

 

here is budgies gold bells which i like hope he dont min me posting this up

 

bump this back up

 

High carbon alloy means they are steel, not an aluminium alloy. As such you cannot anodise steel - this process is for aluminium alloys only. There is no carbon in aluminium alloys.

The Moly will be there to increase the strength of the steel. Copper is sometimes added to steels to help in the prevention of rusting.

If you have steel then you can paint or powder coat only.
