Type 156 rims in black

sn0pea · 12-16-2010, 07:26 PM

So my dad knows a place to powdercoat rims for cheap and he is trying to convince me to powdercoat my type 156 rims black instead of getting black rims. What do u guys think? Will they look crappy black? Does anyone have any reference pics on a 325i?
Thanks

Unless there's a specific reason you wouldn't want bigger wheels, I personally would opt for something a bit bigger than the 156's.

Well the problem is money. How much do you think I could sell a set of 4 156 rims for?

Just do a search on the forum of how much other people sold them for, I'm not really sure.

You won't get much for OEM rims, and powder coating them black would just make them look like dirt OEM's. save up for 19's
