Re: Can someone photoshop this for me...
That’s fukkin’ perfect!
And the color is right too. Makes the tires look bigger!
Thanks, now I know what I’ll be doing... removing all chrome.
Thanks man,
Mark
PS. Did you use gloss black or a dark charcoal gray?

Re: Can someone photoshop this for me...
good luck....thats the same thing i did with mine when i had them powdercoated......it was a pain in the ass. theres not too many places that will chemically remove the chrome because , apparently its bad for the environment. you best bet is to take the wheels to your powdercoater, if they do sandblasting, and have them scuff the chrome with the sand and then powdercoat on top of that. thats what they did for mine...but the chrome flaked in spots and looks like $hit....thats why it is now my 5th wheel spare.

Re: Can someone photoshop this for me...

Re: Can someone photoshop this for me...
If you want to see a real world comparison. I'll get some shots of my 24"s w 37" Toyos I de-chromed and powdercoated black. Switching to black literally makes the rims/tires look about 6" larger for some reason.

I thought about it and came to the conclusion that the most I would leave chrome would be the rivets on the outside edge.
But honestly, I'm with atomicgoofball (can't believe I even admitted that  ) I think the all black looks aggressive as hell.
