If that is a coating from Rays I would like to slit my GT-7's and send the barrels to be coated like that. Anyone here know if Mackin does this?

The finish is call Ion Plating.. only available for all Rays wheels with Stainless Steel Jacket (Lip).. Meaning no Volk Racing wheel cause the wheel will weight more... Wheels are still in Testing phase..

That looks so good it's wrong. Are they going to apply that finish on other wheels? I wonder how durable the finish is? If you damage the finish could you send it back to them to get it repaired?

they only come in 18's. the ion labia's aren't offered in the US yet. you can get the ion labia's on almost all labia equipped wheel offered by Rays. DR505's are also strong cast wheels. they also don't have huge labia's for car equipped with brembos.
