Powdercoating wheels
I'm wanting to powdercoat the 20's black and I was told it would be around $500 an I was wondering if this sounded right?

Nooooo. Wowzers, Hell no. In my town I can get them done for 25 bucks a rim. Very good quality too.

some of these prices are insane $50/wheel? Did that include sandblasting/sanding/powder coat & clear coat? Near impossible

Paid about $500 here in California, but that included a set of stock ss rims and tires to run on while they were being done, (so I had no down time with my car), mounting and balancing and a set of black lug nuts.
I only did it because there was no down time, otherwise I'd still be on a stock set of rims.

I was quoted about $500 for everything in California, did not try to find a cheaper price cause these guys are HIGHLY reccomended and I want it done right. I just need to find some rims to put on my car for the 10 day downtime :\

It was ninety nine cents!
|
I was quoted 160 per wheel, +20 per wheel if they are coated with anything. (I'm assuming factory clear coat counts as "coating")
This is by a VERY reputable company that primarily does custom motorcycle work. I passed for now. For 180 per wheel I could wait a little longer and just purchase some nice aftermarket wheels.
