Met up with a fellow Fj'er today and picked up 5 factory rims from him. Told him about the forum and gave hime the link. Hopefully he will join shortly. Daniel if your out there you should join we don't bite....

Now to figure out how I am going to paint the rims....and then what tires I will buy....LET THE FUN BEGIN!!!

Hey Putts255 I've got a buddy here in Lethbridge who does sandblasting and painting. He's also got a connection here in town that does powdercoating.

So if you're interested the cost is $400.00 for 5. Feel free to shoot me a private message anytime.

Pics always help.

Rob I'm really digging the powdercoated OEMs. Your FJ looks awesome man!

Thanks Brazenhead, I am as yet undecided how to paint these. I think they look awesome fully painted like yours with Toyota emblem still chromed. My problem is I have a black diamond and I am not convinced the total black look will look that great. I was thinking of a mix of paint and aluminium showing or maybe even a black and white theme...

Need to do some photoshopin to the rims and see what looks best...for my tastes....

Thanks guys. Either way the option is always available if anyone is interested.

Cheers
