#79482, "need a Kosei K1 rim in Anthracite"


          

Anyone know of any places that might still sell Kosei K1 wheels in Anthracite (gunmetal)? I curbed the car the other day, and Tire Rack doesn't sell my kind anymore.

Alternatively, anyone know of any good places in SoCal that can paint wheels and match colours? TireRack still sells the rims in white, so I could always go that route...

That sends a chill down my spine... If you look in the back of some magazines like sport compact there is usually a good bit of ads for repairing rims...that'd be your best bet

Thanks for all the feedback guys. I'll prolly order a new wheel from TR, since I am anal and will always distrust just fixing up the gouge and running on it. I need to get a couple new tires anyways.

I could always have the full set repainted. One of the guys on SoCalDSM has a hookup that should be able to do it. It might be a chance to get a full gunmetal colour. The anthracite has a slight greenish tinge, but I always woulda preferred a straight grey shade...
