Default Painted TT's on NBM WS6

I took the wheels and tires off my Pewter Z28 and stuck them on my NBM WS6 yesterday. Here are a few pics, I'll try to make some better ones later in the week. 17x9.5's front with 274/40/17, rears are 17x11's with 315/35/17 Nitto Drag Radials.

damn, that looks hot. I may end up painting mine now. What brand of paint is that? Color name? Paint code?

Thanks,
Robbie

Here's the same wheels when I had them on my Z28, they look so good on the WS6 that I'm going to leave them on there and do another set for the Z28 I took the wheels to a shop that does painting for custom bikes and they picked out a factory chevrolet gunmetal grey and added some extra metal flake to it. It is a basecoat/clearcoat paint job. The next set I do will be the same color, but I'll have them powdercoated.

why powdercoated next time? Just curious because I'm considering doing these to my TT2's but I'm debating on either powdercoated or painted.

I've chipped the paint in a few places on the painted wheels, the powder coating is alot tougher. I had set of wheels powdercoated for a mustang I used to have and those things were super tough.. never had a chip or scratch on them. The painted TT2's are really easy to chip and scratch.
