    I was also interested in having mine powder coated, but i'm pretty sure it would be impossible to color match the color of your car. I have an EB lancer and was thinking about a gunmetal color for my wheels (found a local guy that would do them for like 80 or lower per wheel). I think it might be to much for red wheels on a RR lancer, but in the end it is your choice, so if you want it. GO FOR IT!

    yeah i know what u mean. Gunmetal was my other choice. A powder coating place close to me does it on 18's for 75 a wheel. thanks for the input

    i've always personally thought painting ur rims gold or the color of your car (other then if ur car is white or black) makes ur car look too ricey :-\

    but in the end... it should really be ur opinion, ur the one thats gonna drive it every day, who the fk cares what everyone else thinks, if u like then fk them ^_^
