Help Me Pick Rims
One of the last things I have left on the list for my 4runner is new rims. I have narrowed it down to either the stock 5 stars or the MB Blitz.
If I get the 5 stars I can either leave them the stock color or paint or powder coat them black or another color of course.
Let me know what you think.
Here are some really bad Paintshops. Lol.

Do you really have to maintain powder coated things? I thought it was pretty durable. I don't really offroad either.
If it makes any difference I'm probably going to have some TerraGrapplers of BFG KO's soon.

Sorry, I misunderstood...I thought you were going to spray paint them like several others have done on here. Powder coat should hold up...but that would be a question for waskillywabbit 
I'm not sure about powder-coating aluminum
Does that work?

Lol. I have no idea. I think some others have PC'd their's.
Here is a real Photoshop of the Blitz. Still trying to get someone to do the 5 stars.

I think you can powder coat them. If you can that would be the way to do it...I need to have the steel wheels on my Jeep CJ-7 re-powdercoated...they are white (23 years old) and have started to look stained.

Thanks for the responses so far. Do you have a side picture of that 4runner with the Blitz rims? I'm assuming the offset is fine?
