I have a set of wheels that I have been trying to sell. If I do not get any bites over the weekend then I will just keep them and put them on my truck. I was trying to sell them because I originally didn't want to put the money into powercoating them. Overall the wheels are in good shape, except for the pealing of the chrome in certain areas. I know it can't be fix and I can't just ride w/ them that way because it will bother me way to much.

On Monday I am sending them to a local guy to powercoat them. My setback is that I can't decide on a color. Some of my favorites have been gunmetal grey, anthracite grey, charcoal and aluminum. So, I wanted to send it out there and see what you guys think. What color ideas do yall have?

The wheels are ck916's. The pic of my truck is a little old. I do have a 2/3 lowering on it now.

Before anyone asks. The wheels currently on my truck are already headed to my dads truck this Saturday.

Didn't you say before that they could powdercoat something that was shiny similar to a polished aluminum finish? If so, I would go for that.

Although a light gun metal might look nice. Maybe something like this color below might look good with Bermuda Blue?

They said they could do something similar to aluminum but it's a little on the grey side. That picture is exactly what I've been thinking of doing.

Not sure that would be in the budget. Isnt it like 300 bucks a wheel to rechrome.

not sure. I know there is a place downtown that does it. Call around. Obviously re-chrome would be best, if it's in the budget
