Powder Coat?

I'm trying to do a blackout theme on my 09 that's gray. I have the stock 20" rims and Pirellis still with about 25000 miles on them and there are a couple nicks in the rims. Should I powder coat the stockers black or get all new black rims? Anyone have any pics of a powder coating job? Does it look legit or what?

And I was possibly thinking that if I get new rims to get smaller ones so that I would have a better wheel to tire ratio that would look more proportional. And in the long run I may even save money when getting new tires each time.

Just wanted some thoughts here. Thanks!

i'am with you i like more tire to rim ratio to. i say go with 18" but if you stick with the stock ones powder coat. Imo anything on the bottom half of the truck if you can powder coat it then thats the way to go.
