      Wheel Anodizing/Powdercoating/Painting

      I would really like the new forged CCW line. However, I want grey centers and polished lips. Can I take that highly polished wheel and anodize, powdercoat or paint the center, keep the high luster, but just a different color? If not, do you know of a 5 spoke wheel (other than american racing) that has grey centers and polished lip?

      Wheels

      Thanks, I appreciate the opinions, the only Bonspeed wheels I like are the Deltas, I spoke to them last week, or atleast the guy at USWheels, and they were about as helpful as an old lady with 3 rubber boobs. Hope there aren't any old ladies here with rubber boobs. I may look really seriously at the Deltas. Does anyone know if the wheel selection they have online is current, or if they may have more wheels that aren't on there?

      With proper prep,you can powdercoat almost anything.
      Anodizing will not work on cast wheels,,too porous.
