I had Vivid Racing powder coat my bolts I'm running 19x12 Inch in the Rears (HRE 18mm Spacers)315/25/19 Rears. I had this done few years ago, a few have chipped from taking the wheels off over time. It's best to use tape on socket as not to ruin the powder coating.

I ended up with standard lug bolts to keep the separate ball seat washer and had them Black Zinc plated. They're really holding up nicely over a number of times taking them on and off - no signs of flaking or pealing thus far.

Anyone thought about buying a set of nice aftermarket ones and just powder coating them? Just a thought!

GMP Plating in Morgan Hill, CA - they did my exhaust tips at the same time. They did a great job with extremely quick turn-around.
