Default New wheels

Does anybody know if any company makes rims in a metallic or titanium blue? Those would look soooo hot with my sonic blue stang.

I would email sales@mustangtuning.com they were a big help with me finding my custom wheels. I asked them if they carry them and he emailed me back with websites after he ran some searches. Just a suggestion...

Well if you cant find them im sure you can get wheels powdercoated. I think powdercoated metallic blue bullits would look sweet on your car! and I've never seen them so it would look awesome and be unique at the same time!

how much would it generally cost (per wheel) to get them powdercoated? i'll just keep my stock wheels if i end up doing that. my wheels themselves i like, i just don't like the plain color. i was eyeing up some crhome wheels, but then i was like BLUEBLUEBLUE!!!!!

ummm I asked a place near where I live and he said about 60 bucks per wheel. But im sure you can find a lil cheaper. He said it depends on the size and also if they were already painted hed have to sandblast them to take the clearcoat and paint off. So yeah im guessing around that much, so id say at LEAST $240.00 for everything. Cheaper than buying new wheels and I think it would look pretty sweet. I still think that powdercoatd blue deep dish bullit wheels with the polished lip would be bad a** tho.

Wow, that is a lot. I had my wheels powdercoated black on my old 98 Z28 and they only charged me $200 for all 4.

I think it just depends on the size of the wheels, and color. Cuz my friend got his 15's done in bronze for like 50 wheel, just keep lookin man you'll find a good deal....
