Sweet! That looks bad ass!

I just called and talked to them about doing the wheels on my Jeep.

Can you post some more photos from different angles? Kinda hard to see how that differs from powdercoat. I like that it's a more subtle look. Is the beadlock done in black chrome as well?

Here is a wheel pic from their site:

Here are what my TBSS wheels looked like with black-chrome powdercoat. Much more "black" and not as much "chrome" on those.

The Black Ice wheels look good. It looks better than the powder black chrome.
It is a vacuum metallization (sp) process.

I will when I get the car back, I just dropped it off to get a rack & pinion put in it. it is very hard to photograph the color in them because they change with different light.
the beadlock rings & centers are done.
