im debating on powder coating my rims black, im just looking for some other opinions
 
if i were you i wouldnt, i think because of the rims style it wouldnt look good but you never know...
 
Do It! I love the look of black rims and white letter tires...I got my Olds Rally wheels powdercoated and I'm happy, they still look good after 3 years..your rims look nice tho polished up, i'd be a shame to black em out if they are in great shape, but then again if you don't mind I'd go black
 
yea they are starting to spot rust and im sick of polishing them but like 85 supreme said im not sure on the rim style
 
Maybe have the 5 spokes powder coated and leave the outer hoops polished. I wouldn't do the whole wheel.

Get a cheap roll of black electrical tape and tape off just the spoke part, take a picture, and then finish taping off the whole wheel. Take another picture. Compare those 2 pictures with the above picture and see which one YOU like best. If you like them all blacked out you'll know for sure before you spend all that money having them PC'ed. Better to do it that way and then not like it.
 
I wouldn't either
 
Just repolish them and be done with it.. I think they would not look good painted.
