Powder coated wheels

[Smokinhot]

Whos got'em?

I'm gonna be headed over to get some 20's coated for the truck, but I was wondering how everyones were holding up on aluminum wheels. I bought my bro's old chromed 20's and I'm having them blasted then coated metallic silver. I had run coated steelies in the past on my old 94 but I was wondering if this stuff flakes off easily or if its held pretty good. The guys I'm going to are pretty good, $200 for 4 20x9.5 wheels

Powder coating is the best way to go. Think of it as welding on paint apposed to gluing it on

Mine are PC. holding up great, except for of course some minor curb rash... But it's better than painting. all 4 for 200$ that's a deal. I paid 350 for my 4 18x8 rims....

My wheels are pc'd for over 3 years now, still look great. Its a DD too!

I was thinking about getting my current wheels powdercoated black before I put them on. If I ever scratch them up or get some killer curb rash, thats probably the route I'll go.

How much did they charge? They are very close to me. I may have my 10 spoke Comp G rims powdercoated for winter use (once I find a replacement for the one I cracked). They are in pretty bad shape from curbs from the previous owner.

mine should hopefully be done friday so I can have the tires mounted and start rolling.

It cost me 90 bucks a wheel I think.
