Holy cow those are TOTALLY red!

Hmmm... I wonder if the Eastwood Ford Blue powder is close to 1970 Glacier Blue...

Hey, speaking of powder coating... I assume since people do this to their wheels, that the heat process to flow and cure the powder does not affect the metallurgical properties of the wheels? I'd love to powder coat my Fuchs but I worry about such things.

For a picture of how they look on a car check the August 1993 cover of Excellence. The same red color and style wheels are on a C2 model 911 Speedster...also red of course. Wish I could get my scanner working to show a picture of it. They look great.
