That was the cheapest quote I found near home, most places charged around $50 a rim, this place said $30, but when i dropped it off they said because the rims are brand new they wont need sandblasting, so it would only be $20. Was pretty stocked with the price however didn't really have a good look at them until i put them on the car, I have noticed a few drips, nothing major or really noticeable. But just enough to piss me off every time i look at them.

Rims look Porn.
White is a bitch to keep clean though. The front wheels will be black before long. I went from Gold to Gloss Black as i was sick of keeping the gold rims clean. |

^^ not if you seal them correctly!
Riceman, speak to Joe (BALISTC) and see what he used to seal his wheels |

Definitely do the Group 4's. Did it on my piggy and it was like a whole different beast to stock. Fair bit more rear suspension noise but ride was way better and handling was brilliant.

Plenty of differ things to seal white rims with to make brake dust glide right off, I hand waxed mine with Mothers carnuba wax then sprayed them with a spray on wax stuff called spray magic which Tino and myself use on our cars/wheels. (Dez from auto uses it on all the new mercs at diesel motors and is awesome stuff)
A lot easier to seal them before tyres go on though. The paint on the rims stays super smooth and are so easy to clean, however one of the biggest things you'll need imo is low dust pads as it helps even more haha.
