You really gonna pay $650 to powder coat a cheap set of steel wheels? I got the whole set = tires + steelies + lug nuts + center caps on MTC for only $500.

I really wanted a powder coat, but it just doesn't make financial sense on any level. Ended up getting some Chemical Guys Wheel guard for $25 and gave them a good protective coating instead. Wheel covers are $50 but I haven't needed them yet.

There are so many upgrades and add-ons, especially for an XL. Heck, I'm in for $4k in extras without a phone holder. I'd suggest a wait-and-see approach because the juice 'aint worth the squeeze on an XL steel wheel powder coat.

I like it. I was thinking of doing mine in Gold or Bronze if I ever get my Mav and using them for winter set up.

The white is ok. I had a pickup in the 80’s I put those wagon wheel 5 spoke steel wheels on. Back then they were like $35 each. I’m determined to go matte black on my steelies when I get it.

What tires did you change to and did you reprogram the Speedo?

I like the color. But point taken. Thanks for the tip on the Wheel Guard.

Wheel guard on these bad boys. Tire rack. Crazy that new wheels are the same price as a powder coat. Kinda makes sense just to get a new white wheelset? Keep steelies for winter set or sell them.

Where is the DON"T LIKE Button for this one?

I think they look plain silly.
