Hi guys,

Purchased my black a couple of months back and absolutly love it too bits. Im after some new wheels (in black) but unsure on what to do? The style of the standard st wheels for me look awesome , but not sure if to change them or get them sprayed?

Ive was originally looking at just purchasing some st500 wheels but was seeing if it was just cheaper to get them sprayed.

Any body had theres sprayed and if so whats the cost like when compared to replacing them.

Cheers..

Cost to get all that done to my rather badly kerbed wheels was £248 but you can get them done cheaper elsewhere, especially if they dont need refurbishing (i.e. have no scuffs, just need powdercoating) and can leave the wheels with them and/or have the tyres taken off too.

azz0703 - here's a picture of a black ST with the wheels you're talking about (I'm assuming you mean the Team Dynamic Pro Race 1.2's?)
