| Get them powder-coated. Not cheap but gives an excellent finish.

| Briskodian  | I paid £25 a wheel from a company up north. Can't remember their name now - but was an ace job. |

| Briskodian  | Should look well the only thing about white wheels is they can start to creamy almost, a couple of years ago my mate had white alloys on his black clio but started to dull down and go off colour. Just remember to keep them well protected and polished |

| Briskodian  | £25 per wheel sounds like a total bargain! Been doin some research as my furby wheels are slightly corroded and i would like them darker coloured. Wicked wheels seem good but they charge on average £65 per wheel and altering the colour is probably extra  If anyone knows anywhere better/cheaper in the north west (im in cheshire) i would be really grateful.
