I may just try painted them myself. I restore trucks and plows everyday and have the paint system down. I already scratched them down ready for primer. The reason I am doing this is 1) I have a silverstone and silver rims just dont look good to me on silver, 2) These rims were on my first S2k when I went into the ditch so they got alittle scratched and a small chip off the edge during that. I was told it will still hold air. I hope to upgrade to different rims soon anyways. Thanks for the help and Ill be sure to post up some pictures when its all finished.

A2 - when I first went for a ride in the Frontier with Doug, he started off by saying how you could have fun with the truck. He holds the revs around 3k and dumps the clutch. The tires squeal and he goes through 2nd, up to the top of 3rd, and into 4th. Doug then covers up the speedo, and asks: "How fast do you think we're going?"
"Uh, I guess maybe 75 or so?"
"Ninety"
"Uh, I guess maybe 75 or so?"
"Ninety"
That time the number was 105

Sorry to hear about your snow Jeff 
I'm glad I thru the cover back on the S. That's turning into a REALLY good investment! It's miserable out there this morning with wet and gravel, I'm so happy not to drive it in that crap.

Maybe I'll give the guys at CT Engineering a call.
