    So what does any one know about powder coated rims? I am looking at these for a budget replacement of my stockers. I really want Teflon but just plain cant afford it.

    So, even though the beast has 18" rims and tires, I can "downsize" to a 16" or 17" and associated tires?

    yea 16 and 17" wheels (with the right offset, bolt pattern and hub bore of course) will fit with no problems.. some have even gone to 15" but that may require some minor modifications
