anybody have any experience with powdercoating/painting alloy wheels? I've tried to bring myself to part with money for likely-looking riceie wheels, but I keep coming back to the idea of some boxster 17 x 7s colored black. Can they be powder coated? Paint them? Can someone point me to a source for annodizing?

Local PowcerCoating shop here will do it.
He says you need to 'outgas' the alloy. Heat it up real slow so the air in the alloy doesnt cause cracking or make it brittle. Costs a bunch more because you gotta run the oven longer. I spose it works. I know where theres a set of 17" Cup wheels and a set of 3 piece A.R.E alloys 7x16" (look like BBS's) sitting a guys garage (next to his 2.7 liter /6 engine on the floor)....he wants to sell, he's just lazy. Gimme a nudge and I'll look into it. Robert O |
