Wheels powdercoated / new tires
Took my wheels to a local vendor and had them stripped, primed and powdercoated. I ran them over the winter and the paint just couldn't hold up to the salt anymore. The finish is a little orange peely when the sun shines on it, but for $30 per wheel for everything, I can't complain!
Also handpainted my centercap's logos to be the original black emblem that they once were. And, got some new tires, 205/40/17 Nankang NS-I's. Loving them so far - quiet, soft ride and does great in the rain.
