Just make sure you're really careful with your lug holes and air valve, the extra coating may not allow your studs to fit through. We used to put old bolts in any threaded holes but wont be the case with wheels. If you go to a good shop they should know.

PS. Let us know who you end up using. I have a bunch of brackets and the frame for my new Fairlady Roadster package that I need to get done in a month or so, first I need to get the frame welded to make room for the new engine.

Good luck and lets see pics when its done.
+1. Yeah, I'll keep that in mind. Thanks! This is something that I will definitely won't jump into until I find the right shop. I don't care if it takes month! Haha
