I wouldn't go through the trouble. $320 for powdercoating + $100 for mounting and balancing is too much if thats not what you really want. You could get it painted for a lot less, without removing the tires, but its not as durable.

When your ready, just sell the base wheels and save that money towards the SP wheels. Around $1200 for a used set including tires and sensors. I plan on keeping my 18's and slapping some winter tires on when I have enough for an aftermarket set.
