Talking Crinkle Black powder coated STI BBS rims!!

As some of you know I had a set of beat up!!! i mean probably the most beat up STI rims in hawaii!! (none of that from me tho!) from bent lips to pot hole damage to bent forks to dented forks to chipped to xtreme curb damage!!!

Well all has now changed!! I just picked up my rims tonight from being refurbished and powder coated......... There SICK!!! at lease to me. I haven't seen another rim out there like this. (at least here in hawaii)

So here is a TEASER pic of one of the rims...... Now i gotta figure out if the will be my daily rims or r-compound rims. My other set are Rota tarmac 3's


Here are the pics

Wow, those are sweet! Talk about low maintenance.

I thought powder coating can weaken forged rims though?

shaggy - use the lighter rims for your r-comps for auto-x. after powder coating i'm not sure which are lighter, the tarmacs or the sti stockies.

I like it...really do actually.

Use these as your dailys as long as you're not the kind of person that curbs rims much.

Use the cheaper Rotas for your race rims.
