iroc-z wheels

want you guys thoughts on this issue....
iam thinking powdercoating my iroc-z wheels black and red !
there the ones that were made for two years the 16 inch ones (88 90)
i think ! well my girls son used one of my wheels to move a blazer and her screwed up the wheel i told him to use a spare off my z28 but kids do f-in listen and before i buy another wheel or powercoat the whole set i was wondering if this wheel is useable or can be repaired !



i waz gonna keep it but i might scrape it b/c a lot of wheel places here said it no good ! well let me know fellas i really dont wanna ruin these wheels how rare are these wheels and how much to restore three if i find a restored one for the rear ? thanks !

It's junk, buy a new one. A wheel resto shop may be able to fix it for four times the cost of an ebay one.

I agree. You need a new rim. That one is trash. The IROC rims are kind of rare and are much sought out yet you should be able to find one.

Ouch! It's probably junk but check online and your local yellow pages for wheel repair businesses. http://www.wheelcollision.com/ is a big one here in PA.
