Stock 17s powder coated black?
So I'm wondering if I should powder coat my stock 17s black. I have an 07 black onyx IS250. Does anyone have pictures of this so I can see what it looks like if I decide to do it?

Yeah I seen that thread but it's not what I'm looking for. I want to see the stock 17s painted black on a black is250. Thanks for the help though I appreciate you looking

i have the 17" awd wheels currently sand blasted to pure meterial. (bought a sand blaster and media 150.00 + 4HR LABOR)
i was quoted 75.00 to powder coat each wheel if the coat i wanted was in stock.
TOO ME AFTER HAVE DONE ALL THE WORK TO SAND BLAST, I WANT TO JUST PAINT THEM DUPLICOLOR WHEEL PAINT WITH A DARK PRIMER.
* i recommend sand blasting the wheels. my oem had bubbles. if you want to redo the wheels it will be necessary to get the wheels to bare metal before painting or blasting.
between me and you. or however reads this post, i did three wheels the last i blasted but only took it down to primer. the three wheels that i blasted to bare turned out great but the last (primered wheel ) looks like poop.
