    Hi my name is Chris. I've seen several questions on powder coat. I had my original wheels powdercoated solitary silver, could not have been more pleased. Caps can be matched with Rustoleum, they look better than original. Hope someone gets some use out of the photo's. These were coated at Top notch powdercoating, Flintstone, Georgia!AE4899ED-EB2C-420E-995C-CA383313A24B.jpg90D7473B-7B2C-4D71-87C2-CC40624A6109.jpg

    Nice powder coat. Great way to freshen up old rims.

    I had some steelies powder coated grey and they turned out nice. I had not had anything powder coated in years and it's really changed. The sky is the limit with colors, finishes, and so on. Not just basic any more.

    I added Old Man Emu while adding ARB with winch, Dakars rear (The rear springs was a definite improvement over stock, rides the same back there but when hauling heavy loads the truck handles it much better without squatting down like it use to. The front OME sport shocks are a little stiff, I've almost decided to switch to the bilstein. The bumber and winch is very heavy on front, after adding the truck dropped a couple of inches in the first 100 miles. Hoping the bilsteins will soften the ride a bit in front

    I like the ride. No complaints. Put 885 coils up front and a single AAL with the Bilstiens and it works good for me for a mild lift. I am adding a winch and full bumper in the spring and am going to switch the coils to 886 to handle the weight but going to stay with the 5100's. Probably should have just swapped the whole leaf pack but the single AAL is fine for now with the added weight of the camper shell.

    I've read of some people charging $300, Here in Georgia I paid $110 per wheel.
