I have only had the Syclone for 2 weeks.I plan on lowering the rear soon. I am also going to step up to some ZO6 whhels soon so the wheels and tires will be for sale.

I think THAT is kool! Maybe I should redo mine in black.

Back in '95 :roll: I had mine powdercoated Poly. Mirror Silver, Poly Clearcoat and it looks like a factory silver *painted* wheel, kinda orange peeled finish in areas though...much better than the "peeling factory clear with white worms crawling underneath" look. Pretty amazing how the color, finish holds up nicely in strong sun after all these years. wish I had a digital cam....

Looks nice, but I would paint the GMC letters in the center caps RED(like the syclone sticker) and I guarantee it will look way better(At least to me :wink: ). Mine are polished and now that I painted the GMC letters red it looks WAY better than before.

Is there any way to powder coat wheels but leave the lip pollished? I have wanted to powder coat my stock talon rims black for so long, but I think that you have to leave the lip pollished or else it looks kinda like "hey mister, your hub caps fell off"

I was asked to host another pic..

so here it is..

in my opinion, it doesnt look to bad at all.. if the cladding was a bit darker.. it would look real good.. I think..

Those rims do look awsome, now that you can see them on a truck. If someone wouldnt mind doing a little photoshoping and lower the rear and add a polished lip around the rims PLEASE.
