I wouldn't PC wheels... especially stockers.

I mean they are worth what? $400? Spending 70-100/wheel to PC then is just wasting money IMO. Paint them and move on.

admittedly though, powder coated stock wheels look much better then painted stock wheels... its all in the prep though.

I have to agree as I have painted my stock wheels twice already and they just keep the eye appeal. I plan on having my wheels done in Austin by High Point PC for just over $280 total. I'm just tired of putting up with the hassle.

Good info as I am in the process of possibly purchasing a set of Advan RS rims that I plan on having powder coated.
