WTB: Black Rims for 2004 3.0

currently rocking stock 17in wheels and want to upgrade to black

I dipped my stock ones but as we all know plastidip will eventually peel at some point in time and don't want to deal with the hassle

any input would be much appreciated....

thank you

Are you planning on keeping the 17s? If so just powdercoat them

Don't have a backup set though, how long does that process usually take?

I had huge air bubbles in one of my dipped rims so I ended up peeling them off anyway

You'd have to check a local powdercoater, usually a couple weeks. Alternatively, find a set for the E53 you like off of Craigslist or something and send those out to be PC'ed

If you were closer I'd give you a smoking deal on a set of 17's off my old 4.4i to have powdercoated.

pm me and we'll go from there

Do any of you just run winter tires all year round? I see no reason to get sport tires unless you have M edition personally.
