I see what your saying, I was just stating that I put a butt load of miles on my car in the few months I've had to drive it. I actually kind of wish it was feaseable for me to have a 2nd vehicle. I would love a new Dodge Ram or even a "sporty" suv of some sort. Maybe eventually but not right now.

I'm of the same mind set as Vegas, pay for something, might as well get your moneys worth.

edit for my rushed spelling mistakes

Picked up my powder coated 18' OEM wheels today. This person Juny is very easy to deal with. He confirmed with me today that he's actually doing low-temperature baking @ around 350 degrees for these wheels. This is gunmetal color.











Rest of the wheels are in my car. I'll be mounting them with my snow tires tomorrow.

Send me a PM if you are interested to get your wheels to be powder coated. I can give you his contact and you can work out the details with him.

These are $255 total, but it is depending on the color you're picking. Some can be more expensive than others.

that is a really good deal and looks like he did some good work. Let us know if you see any spidering or chipping after driving around on them for a bit.

Can't disagree with you there sir.

And those rims came out nice. Look forward to seeing how they fare through the winter. My winter rims are spray painted and look like crap to me, but I don't really care to much for now. Probably only going to use them this winter.
