Alright guys, I have a set of 18" SS/SC rims. They dont look fantastic, so im going to be sanding them all down, and repainting them and selling them. They will be base-coated and cleared. I planned on doing them just gloss black but i figured if anybody is looking for a set of rims, and wanted something inparticular, I cant paint it that color. Maybe you want 2 tone or something. Looking to get $300 so i can gather some materials and repaint my car.




UPDATE:

 

could you do black with the sunburst between the spokes?
im interested lol.

 

u wanna repaint ur car? yellow again or no?

 

^wanna two-tone it metallic orange and black

If your honestly considering it I can get a price on some sunburst orange paint. It can be done. Let me know. Factory match paint is a bit more expensive.

 

I AM interested in getting body panels painted in a deep burgundy, to contrast with the black. I don't know how far you are from va. beach but once my car is up again, I would like to get that done. My wheels would come along later.

 

Got a post back up i see. Thought we had a deal on 200 for the 4 rims. was going to come down not last weekend but the weekend before. see if you could drive up north for about an hour or two cause its 5 hours to ur house. if u dont sell them for the price you want, i'll still do 200 for them. no need to paint them cause i was going to do that myself unless u do a design with the sunburst orange and black.

 

Well, if you could get a pretty close match for the factory color then that would work too.
I've seen some of your work on here, so I trust your opinion lol.
But if you would rather do the actual factory paint then thats fine too.

 

yea sorry bud hadnt heard much in the past week or 2 so I figured i would fix them up and see if i can get a bit more for them since i wanna do some paintwork to my own car and im in a bit of a money crunch. but yea if these dont sell there urs

let me see what i can come up with

 

That'd be awesome man, thanks.
If nothing else, all black would work from me too.

 

paint them like mine...im sure they would sell quick............

 

u should powdercoat ur caliper white.. thatd be unique

 

lol i could do black and white but how many people want a white lip. And i got some prices on orange paint....and it is one of the most expensive colors to buy. along with red. around $600 a gallon. so $150 a quart to put on the rims. lets say a pint will do and thats $75. So i could get some but it would be like an extra $75. Thats just a guestimate if they would even divide it into a pint for me

 

Pfft, black and red FTW:

 

Alright, like I said, black is fine. But its whatever you'd rather do.
So just let me know.

 

WIcked, those rims are ballin

 

how much for solid flat black?

 

Damn dude if I had known you were selling these I would have paid you for the rims and for u to flat black them. But I ended up paying 200 bucks for my rims and driving 2 hours and 40 bucks in paint to get what I got below



I was thinking about doing black with graphite inserts. But not sure if I would like it.

 

^They came out pretty good

 

would you be willing to ship them? If you could do them like wickeds, black with the red insert, or black with chrome insert id be interested.

 

id ship em I just dont know how much it will cost? anyone ship rims yet?

 

From Ohio to TX it was about 22/rim thru Fedex and that was with each rim in it's own box. I was shipping ss/sc rims too, so figure about 80-100

 

thats pretty good price actually. thanks. guessing you supplied boxes and everything

its lookign like im gonna be spraying gloss black as I have deep black paint and clear, and so far havent had any serious PM's about a different look. Started sanding rims down, been prepping my mothers mustang for racing stripes so that should be sprayed tommorow and friday I can finish sanding and get a coat of etch prime on these rims

 

Yea as long as you don't have rubber mounted and filled it's not offal. One wheel and tire mounted cost me $55 to ship.

Should look into single stage for something that takes a lot of abuse. If you go base-clear look into PPG's DX-57 Base Coat Hardener. That **** will stand up to almost anything.

 

I got some etch prime, and some nice deep black diamont basecoat left over from putting rally stripes on a mustang. Im gonna spray it with that, just gotta get a clear for them. Ill be painting these probobly wednesday thursday next week once I finish re-clearing this mustang hood and trunk. Seems like gloss black is what several people like and ill probobly sell them quick if they were gloss black. If you get like a red vinyl pin stripe and run it along the outside lip, that would be pretty sweet.

 

have you got a buyer yet? or are these still up for sale?
