Powder Coated OEM's?
Does anyone have their OEM RDX wheels PC'ed any color? I've been thinking of maybe powder coating my 10' OEM's in a gloss black like I had on my Si. Looked good for a few hundred bucks with the OEM S2000 CR Black lug nuts.

How do you all think it would look on a Black RDX?



Different Lighting....

I've been wanting to get this done. My RDX is black too and I think black rims would look sexy.

The red/black contrast on the Si looks awesome! Nicely done.

Not so sure about black-on-black with the OEM "flower" wheels. Needs to be photo-shopped first.

ps. nice garage.

What? The 18" HFP-R7 wheels are lighter and a much better looking option. You could find a good set on e-bay for less than $1,000.

I think it'd look good. Or someone should try these Wedssport SA55M. They have black and red or black and blue that I've seen. Only up to 19" though...and they're supposed to be very very light.
