Oem Wheel Set - New Powder Coated - 4 Sale

I am selling a set of 4 OEM factory Wheels that are in 100% perfect refinished condition. They have recently been completely powder coated and the plastic center caps were painted to match. Both the powder coated wheels and center caps were clear coated to shine. These will never chip, peel or flake. They are a silver grey color and look fantastic. See the attached pics.
Asking $750 or best offer. Will ship UPS from North Carolina. Paypal or you can send a money order. PM me if you want my cell #. Thanks, Wayne

Selling the wheels only, not the tires. They are slightly darker than they appear in the pictures. Most companies who do powder coating would never spend the time to match the center caps. It's a fantastic deal for those who want new looking OEM wheels.

where did you get these done? and did you trade old rims for new ones that were complete? I'm curious to know.

They look awesome!

thanks,

That's okay...I'd rather have his backward ones than the mismatched ones on my ride....I have both sets of color coded ones....gray and silver.

Half Backwards
 
It's the HALF backwards that drives me crazy. Can't they see the difference???????? :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :eek: :mad:

Are they a refinished in a generic silver powdercoat or matched to the OEM color?

You say your wheels in the above photo are darker than they appear in the pictures.
This photo is the stock factory "Bright Silver" color used on the 94-97 SVX. Are yours similar to this?

Transwheel Corporation did my wheels. They used the stock factory paint color as the base and a
heavy clear powdercoat on top.

The above photo was taken last fall. These wheels were refinished over four years ago.
Like you said, no bubbling, flaking or chipping. Easy to clean with just soap and water.

Thanks, I do know that 2 wheels are backwards. A friend mounted them for me and since he was kind enough not to charge me , I didn't get worked up as I was switching the wheels anyhow. Life is way too short to burst a blood vessel over every tiny thing. I play with the SVX because I enjoy it not because I have to.
I had the wheels done locally by a powder coater in North Carolina.
It's not so much that they are darker it is harder to see the metal flake in the picture.
They are a generic silver grey. They do look similar to the wheel in your picture but with a little sparkle in the flake. By the way, your wheels do look fantastic and transwheel did a great job.
Yes, the set does include 2 left wheels and 2 right wheels.
Make me a reasonable offer and they can be yours.

A backwards wheel could also mean a backwards tire, if it is of the directional type.

gsrsol84mm 04-13-2007 06:34 PM

Thanks,
The tire is mounted correctly. My friend was just not paying attention when he grabbed the wheels to mount. He was so busy checking the direction of the tires, he forgot to check the wheels. Most people here have never even seen an SVX, I have only seen two others myself and one was in San Diego, CA at a MotorX race.

You don't need to have ever seen one to see that the front and back wheels are different directionally. :rolleyes:

"off topic" wheels look real nice wayne, so does the svx in general. Was going to have Tim paint mine this summer too but then it was stolen and taken for a joy ride about a month ago. now Im just trying to scroung the time to fix the body damage and get it primered:mad: What rims are you goin got replace these with? Oh and yeah you passed me in the svx a long time ago on 485 , I was the weirdo honking at you and giving you a thumbs up in that delivery truck.

gsrsol84mm 04-15-2007 05:42 AM

Thanks, I am really sorry to hear what happened to your car, it's a pitty I didn't get to see the car before they destroyed it. Hopefully you can get it back together. Tim is a great guy and I am sure he will help you any way he can. If you go talk to him, he may help you work on it in exchange for cleaning up his shop every week.

The Wheels are still for Sale. $500 plus UPS shipping. A smoking deal for half the price Transwheel charges, and you get to keep your original set. I am sure someone out there would love this set.

Where in NC are you? I will be going through NC in about 4 weeks and could possibly pick them up.
