I've heard of wheels cracking from the high temps that powdercoating puts the wheels through. Most wheels come painted so just thought it was a better choice. Powdercoating would have been a lot cheaper though!

Thanks for all the nice comments folks. I will have pics mounted next weekend!

I think he matched the color custom by eyeballing it. I'll ask him though. I doubt Volk or Mackin would give up the exact paint code.

So in August you will have the Greddy on? Can't wait to see you at the autoX in september for the Driveway again. See if you have a traction issue at that point, maybe I could beat you.

Yeah the car should be back from Forged by that autoX...

It should be pretty hilarious... I plan to run only 265s in the rear with ~450whp...
