in my opinion you have made the right choice ha i know the wheels and car are two different shades of white but they look so nice in white it dont matter ha
As Kipper said, if going for powder coating on forged wheels they need to be done at correct temperature otherwise they will soften. I would personally just paint them.
Both of my sets of TE37's are powder coated. Are you referring to powder coating temps?
Paint or powder coat either way, value will drop on the wheels, which you are not concerned with correct? Regardless, they are TE37s...painting will chip known issue with paint, powder coating is far more stronger than paint but even with that, powder coat will chip.
I have a set of 16imch TE37s on my 9. Got them at a very good price as they came off a scrapped FTO. Owner was more worried about how good the tyres were. When i got them back looked in the inside drum to confirm they were rays forged. They were originally white and was badly refurbed. Got them sand blasted and sprayed in a nice bronze. Could not believe my luck
volk/RAYS wheels are "strain/work hardened" during the forging process, from my understanding curing them at a high temperature for long enough could very well undo this and weaken the alloy. If i where you i would be very cautious when getting them done and try to get the company that is doing them to guarantee the curing temperature, anything over 200°C/400°F and i personally wouldn't risk it.
