    This has been a long project but finally got it all done! First I found a cheap set of Toyota 4Runner 18" wheels. Lots of running back and forth between guy selling the wheels, tire shops, the powdercoater. Worth it in the end I think to have something different. I mounted them on a set of the Firestone Destination AT tires. I just got my wheels back from my powdercoater. Had them done in a metallic silver/ gunmetal color (looks more black in these photos than it is). Mounted them up on Tuesday and I am pretty happy with the results. Not bad for $500 between the wheels and powdercoating.

    Thanks. That was a big part of the reason why I had to do so much driving around. I live in Indy, and found the wheels in southern IL. Then the powdercoater is an hour 1/2 north of me, and the shop that I like is an hour away also! But for $500 all the driving was worth it.
