Don't powder coat them, it ruins the alloy in the wheels. BBS of America said so. And the wheels in the second picture are gunmetal, not black. And i believe his is spray paint.

Here is where my friend got his spray paint from and his wheels turned out great:

Duplicolor High Performance Wheel Paint

i dont believe that is a true statement....it all depends on how hot the oven gets when you bake the rim...that could affect the strentgh of the material

and oh well....they are already getting blacked out
