      that wheel is available in 16x7 offset 42, in the 4x100 bolt pattern. so it will fit.

      i would save additional money and buy all silver ones since you are painting both surfaces anyhow.

      thats actually the site that i found the cheapest xxr 008 rims on. and they have the all silver ones for 5 dollars cheaper a rim. haha not that much but for all 4 its 20 bucks cheaper. and shipping was only 57 dollars. . i havent bought them yet, cause i wanna make sure i can find a place to do powder coating for a good price. but i think ima have to get them next pay check. im sooooo pumped for these rims.

      so any general pricing on powder coat?

      I'd just look up powder coating on yellowpages.com for your area. Give the places a call and tell them what you want to do.

      We have shops here that fix and restore rims, the one here in town is called the Rim Dr. I’d look for places like that.

      Your boyfriend is on Vortex, have him ask someone in your area on the tex about local powdercoating...VW guys always know the best powdercoaters, because you don't take a set of mint*** BBS RS's to just anyone...
