    Has anyone powder coated OEM rims?

    Has anyone ever powder coated OEM rims black?
    I can't find any pictures anywhere on here? I am thinking about doing it to mine but don't want to ruin them.

    Greg Taylor has done it. They turn out really nice. Granted, I like them stock the best, but he's done some really cool colors.

      Are you talking about the stock aluminum GW wheels? Im currently running a set of aluminum 12 spoke wheels that I bed lined, should look very similar to black powder coat. There's a pretty good pic of them in the first post of the link below.

      As best I can remember my jeep has always had a slight forward rake to it. However it became much more noticeable after installing a Rustys 6" lift and the new 35's. Currently the front is 1 1/2" lower than the rear when measured at the ends of the sliders (and frame in the same locations). Lift shackles would be the

          Here are mine. Not sure if they're what you're looking for, had them powdercoated silver.

            Not black but stockish color. Powder coating it was cumbersome but only because of the masking it off on strait color would have been easy.
