huh The OP had his wheels powder coated. painted wheels are much better IMO
Painting is better? All the painted wheels I've seen around look like ****. They look like they were spray painted. Powdercoating IMO is better. It's more durable and won't crack/chip/fade as easily.
I don't understand why anyone is against powdercoating stock rims. You gotta see em in person. They are real glossy and look like a brand new pair of after market rims. And they only cost 250. As compared to over a grand for a new set of rims? **** thattttt but to each his own i guess
I painted my stockers black for track use and I spent about $50 bucks at autozone and did them myself. They look just as good as powdercoat and its very durable. If you use the right procedure and take your time in prepping the wheels they will come out awesome.
Pretty sweet man. I was gonna do that to my wheels, but thought it wouldnt fit my white boy image (black on redline) , so i went with shiny rims! haha.
250 where IM down mine are currently painted Black glossy and they look ****in nice!!! but would definatley want powder coating and for 250!! hook it up lol
only cost 250? what about dismounting, remounting, balancing tires? there are other costs to consider.
looks pretty decent, will look good on the car.
Forgot to include that. All the mechnical fees add up to another 125.

TBH i don't even no where they got done at. This will sound confusing but my friend's friend is friends with the owner of the powdercoating shop. So he took my wheels and pretended they were his so he got hooked up with a much better price. They were actaully only supposed to be 200 but there was a factory powdercoat that had to get sandblasted at a diff shop so they needed 50 more.
So IDK if you would get as good of a price but I can def find out the spot where they got done...I'm sure it wont cost much more...lemme no if ur interested
