Dymag Dilemma
I found a local guy that powdercoats magnesium so I have dilemma....I have a set of 4 17X9.5s that are unique as they are in original condition and the design is rare. If I powdercoat these silver I will break up the set and ruin the original paint.....however I could also leave them as original and powder coat the rears in Charcoal.
(I have 2 17X11 and 4 17X9.5s) Thoughts:

Re: Dymag Dilemma
We both have 2 17x11's and 4 17x9.5's.
Have we got the market cornered yet?  I'm going to do the silver as well on all of them. Two of the 9.5's will come to you as part of our other deal.

Re: Dymag Dilemma

Re: Dymag Dilemma
$200
  The Color was alittle flatter than I thought, its more of a silver you would see on a Pantera Campo wheel. That might also be due to the casting of the wheel, which is rougher than modern wheels

Re: Dymag Dilemma
The 2 17X11s I have are not matching, one is machined on the spokes and has the Corvette and Dymag engraving......also that wheel is not tapped for cooling caps as the others are....
  Hard to bitch when I picked these up for $160 total

Re: Dymag Dilemma
They look great. And 200. for the PC is a real good price.
