Got lucky yesterday and scored a set of RX-8 wheels wearing Kumho SPT with like 80% tread +
I have a bit of rash to remove, then.........

I was going to get gloss black Powder coat, but..
How about PC in Flat black or Satin. is that possible?
Or, I have painted a set in the past, that Wheel Paint Advance sells is pretty hard stuff. I could try a match to Black Mica and clear coat with the tough stuff

Any black Mica owner thoughts ???


The car becomes darker and stealthier all the time

neon black

Metal flake black PC.
I would not waste my time or money with rattle can.
I would at least shoot them with two part paint, and even then, I would not expect that to last, especially if you have the tires changed. They'll almost certainly nick them up during mounting.

I saw some of that at this place that wanted $100 a wheel, it looked ok, but the flakes were big, and not evenly dispersed

As soon as I can find a way to put my car up on jacks for 7 days or borrow someone's MS3 stock wheels here in Houston, I'm going to powdercoat my stock wheels flat/matte black. At about 75$/wheel it's pretty affordable + I love the stock design on the 2010 MS3

that seems to be the bottom end of the going rate, I keep getting quotes of 100/wheel

Which is more than I paid for the wheels with newish tires !!!!
gggrrr
