Got mine about a month ago. Some little mods so far, but much more to come.

True, but I don't think the spray will hold up nearly as well as a powdercoat.

Huh?

How does that relate to the durability?

And I assume that you're referring to the gold wheels on the Integra, the wheels that are small objects in a low-res picture? The picture that you probably took immediately after putting the wheels back on the car and declared it "sexy"? You simply can't see how the paint job looks from that picture.

Cheaper does not equal better. Price and quality are separate concerns. Just because you can't afford to powdercoat your wheels doesn't make it a stupid idea. It just means you are poor.

i agree with the above...

dude you sound like a freaking snobby ___ b*tch of a guy...i wouldnt rag on someone because they might not be as "wealthy" as you (or atleast how you think you are)..you never know one day your ___ could loose it all and you'll be begging someone on the street for a dime...and that same dude spits right in your face. (probably would deserve it anyways).

on another note.. i wouldn't call those little axis rims baller then anyone else because you powder coated them.. lol its still a pretty cheap azz wheel no matter what color you painted them...

-25 life points for sounding like a *****.

OK, maybe I took my remarks a touch too far. I was just really irritated by the pathetic lack of logic in tc06trd's posts, and thats all I was talking about. I wasn't attacking anyone's car or anyone's financial situation.

I think you'd be hard pressed to find many people who would say that spray paint is as durable as powdercoating, especially in an abusive application such as car wheels. Yet tc06trd was claiming this, and his "proof" was "look at my profile," which has a couple pictures of an Integra with gold wheels. I assume this is what he was talking about. Those pictures are not high enough quality to make ANY useful judgement about the the finish on the wheels, let alone the durability. For that you would need to know how much use the wheels have gotten since being painted. This is pretty basic stuff.

As for your remarks about me and my car, no I'm not wealthy. I'm not ragging on anyone for not having money (LOL, if you knew all the people I am friends with, you would know I could give a crap about how much money people have)... but those people shouldn't go around implying that the cheap way of doing things is better than the better way. It's just the cheaper way. I didn't powdercoat my wheels, that's how they come. The PC'd wheels are on Hat_Trick_Hokie's car.

Minus infinity life for points for you saying I deserve to be spit on, using the "L" smiley, and then saying that *I* sound like a *****.

Reply if you want, but I won't bog this thread down anymore with this argument. PM me if you want to call me more names.

Somebody post some pics of white tCs!
