Just got the rims back from powdercoating. Will post pics on the R later.

 

Minty fresh.

 

Hard to tell from the pics but is it plain white or CW?

Just curious if powdercoaters can match CW.

Thanks!

They are RAL 9010 color is called pure white but they match up to champ white perfectly.

Good to know for future reference.

Looks like they did an excellent job. Rim is brand new.

where can i order this powder from?

 

Wow, really nice.

 

If you want to order some go to http://www.tiger-coatings.com

 

Looks good, I've used RAL 9010 two of my old sets of wheels.

One tip I was told:

<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by Dr Pooface &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">

If you don't sand all the powdercoating off where your wheel meets the hub you will regret it BIGTIME. Brakeing under track conditions creats so much heat the podercoat will melt and cause your wheels lugs to come loose. Trust me, I know from personal experience.</TD></TR></TABLE>

If you masked off the back of the hub then you're good to go anyway, but I also like to remove the paint from the lugnut seats as well. Just a little safety tip.

 

^^^ That's good info.

 

Looks like they turned out awesome.

 

CLEAN!!!

 

Good info. I already see that the lugs got loose and had to re tighten them. I will grind down the parts that you said thanks

 

i love fresh paint on R rims, so sexy

 

This is exactly what I'm planning to do to my '97 this summer. The dust from the Axxis pads have permanently stained the wheels- even Purple Power doesn't stand a chance.

What is a fair price for someone to charge to have this done assuming the wheels already have the tires unmounted?

I paid $200 a set ($50 a wheel) with a full sandblast included for the two sets I've done.
