I had been tossing around the idea of ditching the MSR 045's that were on my car. The finish on them was terrible and dull and I couldn't even wash them to look good. So after tossing around the idea of buying new wheels, I decided that getting them PC'd instead. I love the look of the MSR's even tho they are overplayed. I went to CPC Powdercoating in Crest Hill, IL, about 20 min from my house. They charged $240 OTD with any color you could possibly want. I decided to go with a Black Pearl Metallic, here are some pictures, I will have more after I get them mounted with the fresh rubber...

Old...



New...

 

Those are so nice!

Mine were pc'd there too. (anthracite metallic). Epic price for a great job. So 1up for cpc

 

Thanks bro! And ur the reason I knew about them!

Lifetime warranty and $240 OTD, you can't go wrong. And 1 week turnaround was pretty nice too!

 

Those do look very nice and an excellent price you paid.

 

Those look badass

 

Thanks guys! Appreciate the kind words! I love how they turned out, I have a set of g-Force Sport Comp 2's in 235/40ZR-18 coming hopefully tomorrow morning/afternoon and I will be able to get them mounted up!

 

That looks awesome! and a lifetime warranty is a huge bonus.

 

hey what bridgestones are those on them currently? i'm looking at getting a set of re-11's soon (i think) any opinions on those?

that sparkle is killer

 

On there right now are Potenza Pole Postions. They are a great tire. I have heard good things about the re-11's. I just bought a set of g-force sport comp 2's. Supposed to be a great summer tire with good amount of grip. They tested them on STI's, Evo's, Vette's and they preformed pretty high so I decided to give them a shot!

 

Hmm that's way cheaper than I've been quoted for pcing. Sucks I don't have an extra set of rims. I wonder what kinda price I could get if they had to mount and remount.

They look great btw.

 

Where did you go to for the work? Was it CPC in Crest Hill? I called about 6-8 months ago and they told me $240. I figured that it would have went up, but when I called it was still $240. And I know Adam (riceburner) got his done over a year ago and it was $240

 

I got quotes from other places not the place you guys used. I've gotten quotes from ither places and it was 100-125 per wheel .
Ill have to check this place out.

 

Holy ****! Yea I called a few places and was quoted about 80-90 on average. Called this place and thought the price was too good to be true. Went there and seen how nice the place was and decided they were getting my business. Looked at over 2k colors they offer for no additional change to the 240 and picked what I did. Couldn't be happier. I just got them mounted today and snapped some pictures, will get them up soon!

 

most places i found before this wanted like 150 a wheel and i would have to bring it to them prepped!

 

Here are some pictures, just got them mounted today. They and the car need to be cleaned but the weather is kinda shitty so I'm not gonna waste my time haha...

Love the 235's poke!

 

Very similar to the wheels that i have.... i just have a polished lip...




Thety turned out great.... and for a great price~

 

Yup very close, what are your wheels? Mine originally had a chrome lip, but the owner before me didn't take care of them and they started to pit. So I painted them, then had them PC'd

 

they are enkei.... came on the car when i bought it a few weeks back.... not sure the model of them.... here is a closer look....

 

they look like enkei ekm3 with a polished lip

 

^yup

 

Thanks man~ Good info to know.

 

Iunno maybe its just me. Black wheels look OK when car is parked. On the road and driving they look like steelies. Just me or others may agree?

 

^^ This is ONE thing i actually like about having a polished lip.... very easy to tell they arent stealies.... especially while driving
