Anyone make white steel wheels that look like the BD ones?

Well, I guess I already asked the question in the title, but.....

Does anyone make white steelies that look like the BD ones?

Would it be easier to get them powder coated? I’m not too familiar with the cost of the process.

You could always spray it from a paint can yourself it's not hard. That's one of the nice aspects of steelies.

Looking at the web, they are thick like an aluminum wheel though... centercap resembles the 52 ones as well... or maybe I’m seeing it wrong

I'm willing to bet that what we saw on the Heritage Bronco are aluminum. I don't think you're wrong. They look like a variation of the Fifteen52 Analogs.

Nor exact but these are nice.

These would be ok of you could get a chrome center cap
Too much white

I'll have some bronco base silver steelies available (fingers crossed) soonish. 6/28 production.

Let's make a deal, then do it right- quick sandblast to give more bite for white powdercoat. Perfect fit and factory center caps.

Just ordered method 703 in bronze (+35mm) and will be going on truck either at the dealer or as soon as I get home.

Or I'll use steelies for a custom adventure trailer/feather hauler...some...day...

I’m thinking of powder coating mine also.

I'm just curious as to how the white would look with the top being gray/black? I can visualize them against a white top.

That's exactly why you get a soft-top, get your vehicle now, and then get the white hard-top when it's available.

My daughter had a Jetta with steelies and hubcaps. The steelies got rusty. I took one off and wet sanded the wheel with 400 grit and spray painted them with matte black. If you take your time and do several light coats it turns out pretty damn good. I just taped/masked the tire, didn't even take it off the wheel! When the first one turned out nice I did the other three. Sandpaper and paint, spent maybe $20. It was easy! Try it on the spare, see how you like it and if it turns out good then your set. If not then go get them powder coated!
Edit: Save yourself $480! You could try Plasti Dip, I have never used it but I know some people who have and had good results!

Why does this wheel have 15 round cut out's and one elongated cut out?

That's on a Toyota Tacoma. That is a 16" spare tire wheel. There aren't many options for a steel wheel, for a Tacoma...so you have to go to just yards and buy the spare tire from them until you have 4 lol. The spare always has an elongated hole. If you put FJ Cruiser 17" steelies on it, they are all round holes.

I may have to try Plasti Dip.
