Gunmetal rims
 
I've searched high and low but am finding it next to impossible to find some dark grey (gunmetal) rims in a 15 or 16" rim. Also they need to have sufficient backspacing to get a 35/12.50 tire on a lifted JK without the use of spacers.
Also don't want to spend a fortune on them....I like the AEV but a little pricey.

Or another possible solution may be to buy a rim like the soft 8's and have them powdercoated that grey colour??? Any thoughts?

Thanks

I was thinking about the powdercoated rims myself. I like the look of the AEV rims but, too, couldn't justify the price. I didn't want bling, but too much black seemed like a bad idea, too. I didn't end up pricing steelies w/ powder coat because I settled on 8179's from ProComp. Let us know if you do it and how it went. I think it's a fantastic idea.

There are some american racing teflons that are a dark gray, still they are upwards of 150 a wheel.
