Don't do shiny / glossy black on your 18s. Do satin black, it'll look sick and give the track look. :excited:

I heard powder coating weakens the original rims from baking it. Is it true?

oh haha nice.
For OEM rims, I think the spray paint it to satin black would look the best.
I think having them powder coated is a bit waste of money since they are 18' base rims.
I might just spray paint them and use it for a few years and get nicer rims.
anyone agree?
