Bronze MRR M017

Originally Gloss Black....Not a Fan. But I love Bronze
These are Painted. Not Powder.

Looks good! What made you choose to have them painted vs powder coated? How much did that run you?

I would have pay to have them stripped at one shop and then bring them to another and pay them to powder them.
I choose one stop shopping and had them stripped and painted at the same place. $100 a wheel.
Just Powder coating around here is generally $150-$200 a wheel.

Dang, that's expensive for powder coating! $100 is very reasonable, I don't think it gets any cheaper than that really. To have mine powder coated was $125, I'm surprised that none of your local guys would strip them though. Mine was also a one stop shop.

That is the hard part of picking a Bronze color. Staying away from everything that would make it look like an import.

Thanks. I think it turned out good. Shiney Bronze Mettalic innthe sun and darker flat looking when cloudy/dark.

That color would take up the brake dust a lot better too.

I am jealous of your setup now! I was saw the ad for those wheels after you, and wished I had jumped on them too. I snoozed, and I loozed

Thanks.
Next is maybe a spacer for the back....needs just a bit more poke.
And paint the calipers. Yellow maybe?

WOW....Those wheels look great!
How's the quality of the MRR M017?
Are they a durable wheel?

They have all the required certifications. Balanced out nicely with minimal weights. I have had them on for only 2 weeks but others track them

MRR has a history of quality products and have shown multiple times they stand behind it if something is not right.
