One color will probably be anywhere from 75-100 dollars a wheel. They have to be stripped, sand blasted, then coated.

my snypers are getting polished this week you can use the 10 spokes if i get my new wheels on there.i should have them buy this weekend.
i got two more kills today, 01 bullit full bolt ons and 125 shot.
first pass we were both on n20 and i took him buy atleast 3 and half cars.
second pass we were both on motor i took him buy about 3 cars.
then i raced a red 95 gt with a 308 ford racing engine full bolt ons
i raced him on motor he jumped me about a car and a half on the dig but i pulled up to his front fender so he got me,i should of raced him in the quarter and it would of been a different story.
all cars were on m/ts.

I'd just roll them, there is no sense in spending money on something you don't really really like. 17" Street Lites would look sweeet!

^^ Dont really care for the Street Lites ... There is just no wheel out there that makes me say, I must have that, lol. i like the TTM's TT2's in black....Thats about it....Dont like the new OeWheel designs but 1 and wont pay 2k+ for a set of wheels like Fikse which I dont like anyway, CCW, or IForged. 10 spokes ftw I guess lol

well yesterday sucked, i could not get the boots to stay on @ the track. I can only pull it to about 5000rpms where it was pushing about 10psi and still would blow the boots by third gear, the best pass was a 12.7 coasting through at a awesome(lol) 90mph with a snail crawling 1.98 60ft. I tried everything from short shifting, leaving out easy, double clamping but I got a guy bringing me some better clamps that are the right size this evening, so im going to try it again probably friday night.

Everyone, I posted a thread in this section but I'll put it here too.

DixieMuscleCars is hosting the 2nd Annual Spooktacular Car Show on October 17th at the NAPA shopping center in Leeds, Al. Come on out, it was a blast last year. It's $10 to pre-register or you can pay like 15 or something when you get there. If you don't want to enter, come out and enjoy the show!
Go to DixieMuscleCars for more info!

It was gonna be 125 a wheel for what I was wanting to do. But that was custom 2 toned with a lot of masking. That included media blasting and 3 step process...For one color I would say about 75 a wheel or so.
