Matty has only recently had his (S4Rs) rims done ... but I think they were painted not powdercoated.

i had my S4R wheels repainted from white to blue and then had the edges machined in to the lip near the spokes, cost me about $600 iirc, but that was ride in ride out while i went o/s for a holiday.

don't know much about wheels...are the ones with a rough surface cast...and thats the texture of the cast/forged....or is that a post-mold surface treatment? O often see wheels that are charcoal is colour and have a rough surface to them.

cheers

and that's a good price Matty for that!
