Those are nice. I can't see any difference in the powdercoated wheels and the rare JDM ones that came in black.

Is powdercoating the rims the only way to get that glossy black? I was planning on just spray painting them...

If you want to rattlecan a set of Rotas that's your business, but for christ's sake if you have a set of Nismos do it right and powdercoat them. And yes, the powdercoated finish will be many times nicer than the spraypaint job. As a sidenote, the Rota Nismo-knockoffs come in a glossy black, I believe.

I normally hate the black on black look, but Benny's pics look great. This is an old thread, not sure if that's what he still has or not...

Well i thought duplicolor was the only brand that made wheel paint, but found VHT that carries glossy black.
