i want my stock wheels white...what are my options as far as if i painted is that a bad idea? if not what kind of paint would last etc...also what about powdercoating? how much does that cost and where would i actually go to get it done? Thanks

White wheels look good but are a PITA to keep clean...you sure you want to go that route?

Powdercoating

Check in the phone book, I found several places that I didn't know existed that done powercoating. I simply looked for POWERCOATING in the yellow pages.

My girlfriend has a 98 SE and we got her rims poedercoated white and it was only $180. They came our beautiful, but hey can't powdercoat the caps. But regular Krylon white spray paint matches perfectly. I'll try to post some pics this weekend.

Hey I used white krylon on 2 of my factories(and my passenger fender and front bumper:confused: :eek: :confused: ). My friend uses the wheels with slicks now. Turned out pretty good though.

By the way the fender and bumper were not painted with the wheels. I had an accident a while ago and couldn't afford to have it fixed so I bought a new fender and bumper and spray painted them. Nobody notices till I tell them.
