i was thinking about getting the rims on my xx black powdercoated. does anyone know how much this would cost?

 

[bkelley]

Shouldn't be more than $20-$25 a wheel.

I would suggest instead of powder coating, getting Line-x. Powder coating will come off easily when rocks hit it, however the line-x is thicker and can sustain more than just powder coating. I am going with Hyper carbon for that exact reason so they don't look like crap.

I like the Line X idea! I was thinking of powdercoating but might have to try the Line X route

 

[De700]

I line-x my PRM front bumper and rear grab bar and also the richotte skid plates and has turned out to be a great investment. I posted pics, just go to http://www.club700xx.com/vb/showthread.php?t=1845

How do I go about getting a part Line-X'd?

 

[De700]

Well find a reputable comany near you who does line-x, not rhino liner. Then take the stuff there and they do the rest. however if you are going to use skid plates with a front bumper you may need to cut the skid plate a little to make it fit. If you look at my pic of under neath, look at the top, the tiny gap there is from the cut. I took it to a machine shop and worked great. They charged me $20 for the cut. I would fitt it all first prior to line-x. It cost me around 200 for everything to get line-x which I think was cheap considering they have to prime it first. If you can't find a dealer near you, I know of one you can ship the stuff to and he is very honest

However if line-x rims, I would make sur eyou don't line-x where the seal is for the tire

 

[bkelley]

I've heard of guys using the Rustoliem spray on bedliner. I was thinking about doing it myself.

Just buy mine in the for sale section with razr tires!

 

[De700]

Well I don't know how that holds up, but I can tell you the line-x on my skid plates have held up great so far, nothing has penetrated it yet not even rocks I feel hitting the bottom.

 

[De700]

hey 5W,
I am really thinking of goin with the hiper composite's with mud tires.

 

[5W0P3]

I think I want another 10" wheel with some of these on it...

 

[De700]

Well it looks tuff as hell, but from what I read its a 4-ply correct?

Yes they are. Would be great for mud!

I'm not sure where you guys are located, but I just so happen to do some powder coating in the Baton Rouge area in Louisiana... Just thought I'd throw that out there. I have powder coated several sets of wheels for quads and streetbikes alike. I haven't had any issues with chips and scratched in the powder, other than some serious curb rash type deals. Just wanted to throw that out there! I'm doing mine soon. I'll post some pics.

Jeff,

A buddy of mine has those on his KFX700 and they work awesome in the sand and mud. He's even skimmed across the 40' hole with them.
