Has anyone painted, wrapped or powder coated their 437m wheel's?

Hello,
I hope that everyone is doing well. I recently saw that there was a post from another member that painted their 666m wheels. I was wonder if anyone has painted, wrapped or powder coated their 437's. I was think about doing this and wanted to see how others wheels turned out. Thank you in advance,
Ian

Howdy!

Did you search?

I was conteplating the same, and did an extensive google search and many folks have refinished 437m's.

What I found is that the solid colors causes the wheel to loose its aggressive look. I was going to go all gloss black, but the spokes are lost in the wheel (subjective opinion of coutse).

I have also seen gold, anthracite, etc., and none of them look that great either. Again, subjective.

With all of that said, do a search. There are plenty of examples all over the intrawebs.

good luck!

I did ask if it’s possible to wrap a wheel with vinyl or the face with PPF, I was told not do because it gets really hot and the brake dust would eat it away.

Yeah, I would never wrap my wheels, I think that rocks would destroy them.
I was just asking to look at color variations.

Yes sir, that was my first step. I came her first then google and came up empty.

I didn't have this done myself, the PO did, but I actually like it a lot more than the standard options. I'm not a big fan of the silver accents on the stock wheels.

It's a bit subjective, as others have mentioned, but I love this coloring on my setup.

Similar to mine, looks good on white!

Concur with the single color, prefer it over the ferric greys I used to have.

And besides the issues you listed, also destroys the wheel’s value.
