Default powdercoat the classic IIs?

Since the classic II's are pretty much a dime a dozen I was thinking about powdercoating them black. I would really appreciate any input. I am thinking about adding fender flares to keep the 33's from throwing crap all over the side of my truck.

photoshop it... they will look similar to these black alloys from wheelers.


I'm a fan of black wheels but I have to agree that I think the polished look will look better on your truck.

Agreed. I think gunmetal would compliment that pewter color a lot better than black. I love black wheels. Hell I have black rock crawlers, but I also have a white truck with black windows.
