[AtomicHoe094]

Ight, well i might of asked this question on TF, but time to do it again, im thinking of powdercoating the limited rims black.. yay or nay> lemme get some opinions. can someone photoshop? thanks

closer pic if needed for what ever reason.. thanks guys

Also im getting the windows tinted, so maybe that will help the visual..

NO! you can't deface the 00 Limited wheels! haha

Do it!

 

[AtomicHoe094]

are you serious or no?? lol. all they do is bake the rims until the coating comes off. then they bake new stuff on. so i technically can get back the silver,,

 

[Drgnblood]

Yeah that will look sick!!

As of now, i say no. get the windows tinted and smoke the front corners, and i'll say maybe.

+1 on getting the windows tinted...would make a huge difference.

Alrite, well i think i could squeeze that in soon also. cost me 75 bucks for the front 2 and 5inch strip.... i have black corners, but they were for the older model grille, they said it would work for mine, but nope, thats why i have black head lights and black running lights with clear corners..

Thanks for your input guys..

I say save the rims...

Save your money for a pair of nice set of rims and tires!

 

[AtomicHoe094]

this set will most likely be my last set on the truck.. or the new tahoe rims. like clean95 http://www.tahoeyukonforum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=376 ...
those are pretty much the only rims that will go on my truck.. soo since i love these limited ones, well thats were my money will be going..

 

[foreverfalcon40]

Ahh if you love em...why not. Only gm enthusiasts will appreciate those rims.

But I love your work and your truck...those rims won't do it any justice.

i say do it, but i powdercoat so i can tell you it will be hard to get the factory color back if you ever change your mind.. you can strip the powder off with alot of work but the clearcoat that is on the wheels now will have to come off before powering, so without alot of work and alot of knowing how to persevere and save the alloy it is next to impossible. i think you will like the black and with tinited windows it will look awsome.. i just wantted to let you know that it is a hard task to get back to factory after powdering.

my .02 cents dont pc them and if u want to black wheels get some 20 22's in black with a polished or chrome lip.

 

[blackcoffee]

Get some teflon coated wheels and call it a day, best thing I've ever done with my truck.

 

[Effeckt]

I say go for it!
