Question all black 17" and 18" rims?

I was wondering if any one knows of any all black 17" and 18" rim producers? Or can I buy any rim I want and have it painted or powder coated?

Hi,

If I were you I'd keep my options open and have a set painted or powder coated as it'll give you more choice for style and more importantly, offset especially if you decide on 18's!

Good luck!

Andy.

I agree with Andy. Buy the rims you want and paint them/coat them. That way you're not limited.

Like all wheels, make sure you have the proper offset before purchase.

i support that too. i have a set of ronal 16" that were powder coated black right before i bought them. i decided to go with 17" boxster rims, but am holding on to the ronals just cause they look so damn good. i am thinking i will use them for something.
