Has anyone ever seen a black R83 wheel? does anyone have a picture?

 

Nope, you can do it in photoshop. Good idea for a black wheel. Clear coat would be nice for durability.

I have seen a powdercoated black 7 hole 15x5.5" rim and it looked sweet.
Didn't have my camera handy. Sorry.

 

the euro style east S car has black R84s.... could give you some ideas

 

got a pic with the R83s? i could Photochop it for you

 

shop this up for me.

see if you can do one all black and one with black spokes, but leave the "lip" a silver color.

 

Here ya go, are these good enough for you?

 

man, i like the one with the white/steel lip. i'd prolly leave it white with black spokes, unless i can find somewhere that will powdercoat mine all black for a fair price...


anyone know what it costs to powdercoat a wheel?

or paint if it will hold up well...

 

I got a quote of $49 a wheel. I was going to powder coat my r83 winter set.

 

I kinda like the one with the spokes only painted. thats really unique

do you think someone can powdercoat the wheel, but not leave an edge where the spokes black goes white? can they clear over it or something to make the change from black to white flawless? if not, i like all black too!!!
