Black Satin 666M

I recently found a used set of 666M's and had them powder coated in satin black. I tried some wheel wax that claims 75% less brake dust so curious to see how hard these wheels will be to clean.

Wheel wax just makes cleaning wheels easier. I don't think it prevents brake dust. Those wheels are definitely going to be hard to keep clean. A wheel brush from amazon would help alot with the cleaning process.

I just ordered a wheel brush so let's hope for the best! Since they are waxed I will probably have to try and not rub it off when cleaning the wheel.

Ditto for me! Had my Power Stops almost 2 yrs now and 16,000 miles. Had the 637M blacks and hated when they changed to chocolate black in 20 miles.

Car looks great!

Mind me asking what the cost was to powder coat the wheels? Thinking about doing the same to my 666s.

The shop charged me $200 per wheel which included mounting and balancing and installation on my F80.

I got quoted the same in my area. I figured it was so high I'd be better off just getting new wheels and saving my 666's for winter tires. So I ordered VFF-103s.

Just get them ceramic coated. Not the fake coatings either!!
Ceramic Pro lasts 3 years easy. Makes wheel life better
