Just thought I would let you all know that apparently now if you are persistant enough with AR, you can get the wheels with powdercoated shiny metallic gray spokes.

Geez, that would have saved me a lot of work (but I wouldn't have had the adventure!) in painting them myself.

Are these the wheels you are speaking of? They look a little different than Patricks.

No, those are the torque thrust Ds, the spokes are a flat gray (magnesium like) look. The wheels on Patricks are gunmetal gray metalic powdercoat with a clear coat.

Thats my luck, when I bought my wheels you couldn't get them powdercoated from AR. So I had them done by a powdercoater. chalk one up to my bad luck.
