Got my Purple Ramcharger Wheels for Duster back from PowderCoating *pics*

Personally Shanker, I'd be more concerned about why they just powder coated right over top of the wheel stickers (see the rim at the top of the photos). That makes me wonder what ELSE they covered up or if the stickers' adhesives were removed first. Keep in mind that proper powder coating prep involves media blasting ......... and wheel stickers do NOT survive media blasting.

good catch, thats because I didnt peel the masking tape off. They masked the area's where the bead sits so that it'll seal better. The shop that did it claims that w/o beadlocks, the tire can spin on the wheel if the tire sits on a powdercoated surface....

The wheels were sandblasted before being coated...they charged me 15 for the blasting (per wheel) and 35 for the finish (per wheel). hence why I'm satisfied with the finish.

if you look at the wheel thats laying down, you'll see on the inside where the bead sits where the masking has been peeled back (where its silver).
