    Hello members,

    I know this maybe a an odd question / request.
    I wanted to know if anyone in LA or OC can let me borrow their wheels.
    I need to get all four of my wheels repaired and at the same time get them powder coated but will take about two weeks.
    I sold my oem set to another member a while back and though I would reach out on the forum
    and see if anyone can help me out.

    While I do not have anything to help you out, I am very interested in the results you get.
    Make sure the powder coat you select has lots of UV protection built in. If not, the wheel coating will degrade to a powdery whitish film on top of the color!
    Powder coat is great stuff, it does have limitations however!

    Thanks for the heads up.

    I'd be willing to help out. I have an appointment to get new wheels and tires mounted tomorrow in Long Beach. Send me a pm and we can work something out.
