Good job on the wheels.

I wouldn't leave your winch rope where it is. Get a 'winch saver' or 'Kong' dog toy to wind the hook into the fairlead.

How much did it cost to powder coat and where did you have it done? Thanks. BW

Ozzy Tyres do it for approximately $80 per rim from memory.

I've been contemplating of buying a set of black rims for my Prado. I didn't realize painting is an option! This is a great idea! Will do more research and prep. This will be my next project.

Nice work jamieprado! I was thinking of painting my rims matte black until I saw your photo.

Did you spray directly the powder coat? Any sort of primer applied?

My Prado is Silver Gold, so I am looking at a colour with a little bronzie shade. Your photo does look bronzie but I think maybe because of the sun light.
