740M Wheels powdercoated

I know several have asked ( including me) what the 740M wheels look like powder coated. Just pulled the trigger, very happy with the results.

These aren't fancy pictures; I will post nicer ones down the road.
I did 50% gloss and had them ceramic coated as well. Cheers!

Those look pretty good. Great match with that paint color and the grille!

Really wanted to order the 742M Black 22s, but this looks almost just as good. I need an all season tire, and ended up going with these 740M with the plan to power coat on day 1.

Hi - thinking of powder coating the same rims on my X5. Any update on how the powder coating has held up? Any issues? What specific color / finish did you go with? Any and all advice / recommendations would be helpful! Thanks!

Do you still have this X5? I just bought some wheels and tires with the exact same pictures from New York.

Powder coating held up great for years- I traded in for an M60i- the company I used is well-known in the Denver area for fantastic work of very high-performance vehicles.

I traded that in last August for a new M60i. Dealer gave me an amazing trade-in price and deal.
