My rims are powdercoated actually. I got them done at Villian Motorsports. I just picked a blue that looked closest which was candy blue and it happened to match really good.

He charged me $300. But I'm buddies with him so he gave me a break on the price. It wasn't easy to do my wheels.

Yeah I would say he thought it would be about half as hard to do as it was haha. Hell of a steal! I'm sure solid color wouldn't be too bad though.

He charges $200-250 for a solid color. A buddy just got his truck wheels done.

most residential areas had snow piled higher than the cars...
many piles were easily twice the hight of the cars.

YUCK.

BC having more snow than Winnipeg!?!? Huh, never would have thought. All this time I thought it was just large amounts of cocaine.

That will be a tough size to find. 225/40-18 pop up from time to time on kijiji. Projekt may have a used set of conti's. I think he was wanting to get new rubber. Otherwise Discount tire direct is a cheap place for new tires.

PS use the 2013 thread. This one is dead.
